how do you get the

vector $\lgroup\rgroup$ symbols to extend vertically to include the $3$ and $0$

$$\lgroup \begin{array}{c} 3 \\ 4 \\ 0 \end{array} \rgroup$$

so that is looks like this

Code:
\begin{pmatrix}
3\\
4\\
0
\end{pmatrix}

that looks better but it still is not the group symbol.$\begin{pmatrix}3\\4\\0\end{pmatrix}$

You can always use detexify. However, I think the different look may be related to a specific font being used.

Check out this thread for the link to detexify:

$\pmatrix{r_1\cr
r_2\cr
r_3\cr
r_4\cr
r_5}$

OK the {} will stretch if the rows are enough to do so.
