I am new to 357 Magnum. Just picking up one today, my first one. A Ruger
stainless police security six 3 inch barrel. Just like new. 350.00 with holster.
Anyway I have been reading about different bullet weights 125 gr. vs heavy
bullets. I have checked into Buffalo Bore brand and find in a 3 inch gun you
can get 1450 fps with their 125 gr. and 1250 or very close to 1300 fps with
their 180 grain. My question, why can't you just load every other chamber
with one then the other of them. That way you will have either the best of
both worlds or I guess the worst. Every other shot would penetrate very deep
and every other shot would just about blow up on contact. Tell me where I am wrong with this way of thinking. Thanks. Remember I'm new to this caliber.
