I loaded up a ladder with 3 loads per charge using .357 cases for 158gr .357 dia and 140gr .358 dia.
Seperated loads by .3grains
At 1.580" the 140gr rests just before/on the cone of the cylinder throat.
The 158gr I'm at 1.600"
At just over 800fps, I started to see improvement of the 158gr bullet and even had 3 bullets nearly touching
I'll work up some more loads with .1grain increments around that
Chrono stopped working on me after i fell over in the wind so I did not get chrono data on the 140g bullets.
3 shot Groups for nearly every charge I tried were around 3". I'm going to put the 140g bullets aside till I can swage them to .357"
