Always try several types of rounds before buying bulk. It took a while to find out my Rossi Carbine (chambered for .357 and 38 Spec) fed Blazer .357 rounds better than others which tended to try to hang up when levering them in. Got some Blazer .357 round just for the carbine and use others in the handgun.

One of my favorite firearms is my 94 Winchester chambered for .357 Mag. When I clocked my loads (I use 158gr. Hornady XTP’s over some 2400) I was astonished at how much higher velocity they had out of the rifle. They will literally hit (with good accuracy) as hard at 150 yards as a 4” revolver will across a card table. No feeding or reliability issues either. I absolutely love that rifle, and when paired with my S&W Highway Patrolman I feel rich and good looking (and well armed).
