I have never put a HBwc or a BBwc in a .357 case..........seemed to be a waste of good brass.
I have loaded lots of 158 lead in the mag brass and the data
for a max load of Bullseys is 7.0 grains per an old Alliant manual and they show 3.5grs of bullseye with a 146gr Lwc bullet at 830fps............

I just think the little 148gr bullet does its best in a .38 special and the 158 Lead bullets work best for standard target loads in the .357 magnum, where the bullet jump from cylinder to barrel is kept minimal,for better accuracy.
