    I don't know how that slipped by. They weigh 154.5 - 155. Diameter is .3585. I will lube and size .357.

    Size some 357 and some 358 if you can. The 358s gave more accuracy in my 2 glocks and cz75. But as I'm sure you know, every barrel and chamber is different.

    This is very true. My Beretta 92fs barrrels like .358 and will chamber up to .360. My Springfield Armory Range Officer pistols in 9mm will shave thin circles of lead off the sides of the boolit and jam if they are sized larger than .357. They prefer .356 for best accuracy.
    You have to find out what your pistol likes.

    Well, I've found a good load. HP-38 - 3.1 grains. WSP Magnum primer. (I have a good supply, and need to get using them) 1.120 OAL is working, and I get no leading. I'll need to chronograph. Brass comes out as clean as it went in.
