Does anyone have much experience with these. I really want to carry .357's in my 2" but recoil sucks so bad. I am just not a big fan of .38's don't ask me why. I currently carry .38's in my snuby.

There are .38 loads these days that are totally adequate in a 2" barrel ... which; is up to you.
I fence-sit on boring-out my SP101's cylinder to take magnum rounds. It would only be for use in an emergency, though.
I feel - at this point - as if a low-flash, non-supersonic, non-deafening/window-blowing-out round is best for me. Recovery and situational awareness without earplugs is important.
Rather hit with something reasonably hard than be picking myself up off the ground, ears ringing, and saying, "Did I get him?"

You know, I'm not particularly a fan of the Judge, but if I lived in an apartment, I might consider it.Living in an apartment I have thought about when leaving that 2" at home loading it with Glaser rounds.
I should add, when I lived in an apartment I was in college and probably had very little blood in my alcohol system...... I probably would not have woken up if I was robbed and probably wouldn’t notice if I had been.
It's really finding what you like and can handle well, but in a snub I carry the old .38 Special F.B.I. load.
This would be, again, for emergency use of any ammo ... a consideration when traveling, for example. You don't want to be away from home/in a SHTF situation and all you have is two mags of 9mm Makarov.
Ever see the movie, “The Road”? Man & son, during SHFT, all they had was a revolver, 2 bullets, a case of tuberculosis and a bunch of bad luck?
Very sobering movie.
