I just had a quick look around and Wanstall's has a RH in .45 Colt.
They bring in batches of RH's every now and then, so give Gary a call.

Wanstall's is out of .357 RH's
I'm on his waiting list. For some reason they seem to be really rare in .357 which I find odd, easiest caliber to run light (.38spl) and hot loads (full .357mag) without having to handload.

"...without having to handload..." Better to do just that and load .357 cases up and down as required. Otherwise, every time you change from .38 to .357 you'll have to clean the rifle first. Just a nuisance on a range though. Reloading lets you use the best possible ammo out of your rifle too.

Proline Shooters in Calgary had one a couple of weeks ago when I was in.

I don't reload at all currently so the cost of getting setup and the skill set required is something I cannot currently devote the funds and time too. In the future I would love to do my own re-loading but as of right now it is not in the cards. As far as the .38 to .357 do they really foul the chamber that quickly? I can shoot different .22 all day long out of my old Cooey with no problems. I'm sure if I ran a couple thousand .22 shorts through it might become a problem when I threw some .22lr but within a couple hundred rounds seems overly quick, are centerfire cartridges really that much dirtier?
