While asking about Primer Cratering on a gunsmithing facebook group. Â I was presented with this article about the .357MAX and am constantly learning more and more about this interesting chambering. Â I think many on this forum would find this article interesting. Â Okay looks like you have to click the link. Â

Zebra...I posted this article mainly for the reading and info about the two firearms and the 357 MAX cartridge explained, I was lucky to shoot a Seville two weeks ago. Â A fine firearm.

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE LOAD DATA IN THIS ARTICLE IS NOTHING I HAVE TESTED...AND IT SEEMS ABOVE THE PUBLISHED DATA ON THE HODGDON's reloading site. Â These loads seem a little hot to me and I would work up to these loads. Â

JUST be cautions start low and work your way up. Â I would be interested to read what powder, charge and bullet you plan to use. Â Be sure to use Small RIFLE primers.

Â

Good luck above all be safe. Â Â
