I want to load some 158gr JHP 357 magnum rounds for a Taurus 617 (stainless steel, 28 oz, 2" barrel). I'm looking for a "reasonable" high end load for this gun -- not a super hot 357 but a real magnum load that makes sense in this revolver.
What would be the best choice of powder for my purposes? And what would be a reasonable expectation for muzzle velocity?
I've been loading 38 specials with Bullseye but conventional wisdom seems to be that it's not the best choice for magnum loads.
Thanks!
