The only reason it won't feed semiwadcutters in .357 Mag cases is that they exceed the max OAL because I use the Lyman 358429 which is very long from the crimp groove forward. I intend to try (but haven't yet) some 158 gr. SWC's in .357 brass. I think they'll work.

My 44 mag with Octagon barrel will feed SWC (but maybe I was using 44 Spl. have not shot it for a while) but the 357 will not. I have not tried the 38"s in SWC yet.
But it's like 45 ACP I gave up on SWC and just use RN, I was tired of "tweaking" every bullet to feed in all my different 45's 1911's, striker fired guns and regular hammer decockers. Ball makes good enough holes for me.
