    You can use pure lead in pistol calibers if you're going to PC. I've done it a few times at normal 9mm and 38spl velocities without any issues. Haven't tried it with 357mag yet, but I'm assuming...

    Yeah, it looks like S&W dropped the caliber. It used to be offered in the performance center 632, but doesn’t look like they’re doing that one anymore.
