.357 Split Cases

[.950jdj]

Finally got to the range today. Purchased some Herters 158 grain FMJ and brought along a different box of the same type and brand of .357 that was giving me split cases. I am happy to say that I had no split cases and no signs of stretching, rings or pressure signs. I thoroughly enjoyed my Security Six today and having only shot .38 spl before this, I learned what flinching can do to my accuracy

Was this factory new ammo or maybe somebody's old handloads?

Good deal. Always suspect ammo first.

The ammo that was splitting was factory remington 125 grain sjhp.
