Depends on the gun .. not all .357 cylinders are the same length. I loaded up some dummies .. .38 case standard crimp, .357 case over the shoulder, and .357 case standard crimp. You're interested in the standard crimp .357. It would not work in a J frame .357 by a good margin. It didn't work in my 686+. I didn't fire any, but they would rotate in a pair of GP-100s but just barely: they seem dead flush and any amount of bullet pull at all from recoil would appear to tie up the gun. I don't know about others .. Blackhawk, S&W 27, Redhawk, and so on.

GP-yes, BlackHawk-yes, Redhawk-yes, 27/28-no.

The Smith 19-yes

Colt 357, Trooper, Python,King Cobra, etc.-no
