I'm thinking about getting a .357 magnum rifle, either a single shot or lever. (Probably not Ruger's bolt action; too expensive and hard to find).
Some questions:
Some questions:
- Lets say I load spitzer 200-grain bullets, and set them further out in the case to leave room for powder. Are these rounds still likely to chamber in a single-shot rifle?
- Could such rounds as the above be single-loaded into a lever action such as the Marlin 1894?
- What kind of maximum velocities could I reasonably expect (with any load that is within the cartridges' pressure limits) for 180, 200, and 225 grain spitzers?
- Will 250 grain bullets work at all?
