Go here, select .357Mag from the dropdown menu, and viola!
I prefer to shoot .38spcl in my Security Six, but have only been able to find 357Mag at the local stores lately.

You can buy in bulk from Georgia Arms at a fairly good price. They have some plated SWC ammo that's $40.50/100 rounds or $400/1000 rounds. That's not too bad these days for .357 Magnum ammo.

Some of the best stuff for the money is Federals "American Eagle" line. The factory loads are just fine, AND you get once fired Federal brass out of the deal.

Loanshark,
I haven't bought their ammo because I load my own but my son's friend bought 500 rounds of .38 Special and 500 rounds of .357 Magnum from them. It's no Federal or Speer ammo but for the price it's very good practice ammo. It's loaded to middle of the road velocities, not very hot but not too light either. It seems to be accurate enough and there was no excessive fouling. It looks like they are using Unique powder but that's just a guess on my part. They make jacketed and plated ammo but of course the plated stuff is cheaper. I think they are using Speer bullets in their higher end stuff or they wouldn't be able to call it Gold Dot.
They also make a hot ammo they call "Canned Heat" and it is fairly hot and they ship in an ammo can.
