I have some factory UMC in .38 S&W LRN that was loaded in the late teens or early twenties and it too measures out at .357-8.
I also measured some old W-W LRN that I have and it's exactly the same. I was surprised to find this so I also checked some Remington Green Box that I bought new in the late '80s or early '90s and it's .357-8 too.
