Who carries 357 Maxi ammunition?

I've loaded it for a friend, but we're needing a fresh ammo supply and cases. Does anyone know where this load is currently available?

Bump



Anyone?

We're still reloading, just would like a little more fresh brass or new loads.

When I had a TC contender took me forever to find a box of 357 Rem Max, at 50$ a box.. Good Luck. I Still got 12rds of that stuff. Unfortunately dunno where the 8 empty cases went.

I'd still go for 5 or 10 boxes if I could find them.

Judging by this box of ammo, It been sitting there for years in the display.

Or not.

We've been keeping the loads a bit on the light side so the cases last a bit longer and have less splits. At some point you have to cycle some new ones in to the mix.

I might have a bag of this that I bought by mistake years ago. I will have a look and see if I can find it.

Ok I found a bag of 33 RP cases .357 Max , new as far as I can tell. What are they worth? I know the shipping will be stupid but give me an idea of how much the brass should be and I will make it a good deal.

I was thinking the same thing from 25 years ago

The last time I was in the store, Del Selin's in Vernon BC had some new brass on his shelves. If you ask nicely, he may even have some older Remington made boxes of 20 in the back room. 250-545-6413 Tue - Sat 9-5 PST

I really like the 357 Maxi and have a couple of Maritnis chambered in the cartridge. One has a 1-18 twist rate and is used for Hornady 158 to 180 grain bullets.

The other has a 1-10 twist rate and I load it with 250 grain Hornady spire points and round nose bullets. This round with heavy bullets is very surprising. Just below sub sonic speeds. It is a perfect tree stand rifle or for areas where short range shots are the norm.

One thing though, at 200m the 250 grain bullets will penetrate a 10in pine log and keep on traveling.

Both rifles also really like cast lead.

When you find it in stock at WSS it's dirt cheap. Like most other stuff there if you can find it.

I think we are talking about the same 357max brass

That is the stuff I'm looking for, as well as factory made cartridges.
