Santa brought me some .357 dies and I have a few thousand West Coast 158 gr RN Plated bullets. A couple of my shooting buddies suggested that the plated bullets won't hold up to "magnum velocities". I've never had any problems with the same bullets in .40 and .45 but those obviously fly a little slower.
West Coast said their plating in this caliber should have no problems @ 1200-1300 FPS.
Any one with personal experience shooting West Coast plated .357s? What happens when you drive a plated bullet too fast?
I'll be shooting these out of a 6" barrel.
Thanks!
