From the post above yours -
"As an aside, I put perhaps ~1,000 .357 JHP's & handload lead WC's combined through mine. I never used a bullet heavier than 125 gr. The factory load I used was the Federal 125 gr. JHP. When I got rid of it, the forcing cone still looked good. The cylinder face was etched, but not dimensionally off. This was according to the gunsmith who took it in trade. I too have heard the comments about full-on loads through the M19 variants but they do not jive with my experience. As an aside, my M19 had a pinned barrel as yours does whereas ny M66 did not."
