like other powders that originated for shotguns but work as well or better for handguns. That load is of the target or practice variety, in terms of velocity. It pushes the Lee bullet to 1003 fps out of my Taurus G3c’s 3.26-inch barrel, and gets closer to 1100 fps out of a longer...
Most experts agree that even though you are not getting velocities out of the .357’s two- or three-inch barrel compared to the six-inches in your gun safe, it is worthwhile to carry the Magnum. You will get increased velocity out of the .357, most things being equal. It does come ...
