I don't know why you consider my comment unfriendly. You are telling us that the bolded nonsense above was quoted from somebody's earlier post. You said that it gets confusing sometimes. That sort of hints that the nonsense was what made it confusing, but that is true only if you believe it, or believe that just because something is posted on this forum, it must be correct, or have some logical basis. While this is true most of the time, there are plenty of cases where it isn't. We occasionally have real experts correcting each other.
Obviously, ammo which meets SAAMI specs for .38 Special +P is safe in .357 Magnum revolvers. This is not affected by postings on this site.
