Yes, it was clear from the post and ad that it was not a .357 Magnum.

the older steel and the fact that the cylinder stop notches are directly over the chambers, heavy .38/44 loads are not advised in this revolver and they just might destroy it.
That statement seems to conflict with the ad Erich posted, which shows the 38-44 OK for a K frame older than the one in the ad I posted.

I love these old ads and continue to learn a lot from them. I have saved the ones Erich posted, and also look forward to seeing the ones with 38-44 listed OK for the J frames.
