I need some help guys, so my cheap 357Mag plinking load for my GP100 has been 6.8g W231 under a 158g Berry FP at 1.58" COL, but I ran out of them about a month ago. During the PV 10% off J4 sale, i ordered some bullets, but they were out of the FP, so I ordered their 158 RNDS thinking they would be close to as good if not just as good. Well, the only data I could find on RN in that weight was a COL of 1.59", really didnt seem much longer than the FP I am used to at 1.58", but i started to load at that, and after finishing 2, it just didnt look right to me. Here are some pics. The FP in the pic is my go to loaded one at 1.58" for comparison's sake.... Anyone have any better COL or any advice? Both the cases are 1.28" as normal.
so is it me, or does it seem like its just to short? seems like the edge of the case goes past where the bullet starts curving and looks off. Should I save these bullets and use them in 38special loads instead?
