I recently started reloading .357 magnum--.38 sp. in my Blackhawk. The manual says the bullet diameter for both the 357 & 38 sp. is the same diameter (.358) What makes a .357 & .38sp different from each other besides the length of the brass and powder weight? Could'nt you use a .38 or.357 load in the same case as they will both chamber. I am loading .357 in .357 cases with 125 gr.rnfp lead 4.0 gr.titegroup oal 1.590 38sp--same bullet 3.2 gr. titegroup oal 1.455 They both shoot well in the gun.
