Hornady has recipes for 125 gr jacketed bullets for these calibers but they are .357". They show the normal cast bullets as .358" for .38/.357. I'm wondering how much difference .002" would make?

I do just the opposite. I was given 5000 105 gr .357 cast bullets. I didn't want to use them in my 686-6 so I load them in 9mm and use a tight taper crimp to size them down. They end up looking like a .22lr bullet with the step in them. Shoot good out of my Sigma and P-89.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
