.357 K (and J) frames are really .38s that can handle .357s. L and N frames are .357s which will shoot softer .38s.
If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
The current version M66 is allegedly beefed up. I think you should try to wear one out with Magnums.

Shoot both before you buy. A lot of people (myself included) prefer the balance of the 19 from the slight extra weight of the underlug.
For my old project guns, I had the front sight block shaved off and a Bowen DX front and Bowen Rough Country rear sight added. The FO sight is awesome.

The heart wants what the heart wants. Because you are seeking advice, why not a heavy barrel Model 10 or 64, they are plentiful on the used market with a wide price range. With all honesty do you see yourself going to the range and firing 50/100 rounds magnums, if so you should reevaluate and consider going up to the N frame size revolver.
