I shoot it all the time in my M586-- that has been cut to take semi rims and reamed to take the longer bullet.
Good round, this 9x23-----High Pressures though.
I don't do hand loads up to speed max in the revolver.

WHERE do you get such nonsense?? You can't back that up with data from a reputable source. Do you say it because you want to believe it or what? Or do you freelance on reloading and hope for the best?

Here's what Hodgdon says and boy, what a crushing defeat for the .357!

9X23 - 125gr/1300 fps @ 46,000 psi; 469 ft lbs
.357 - 158gr/1591 fps @ 40,700 cup; 882 ft lbs
