Henry Big Boy .357?

Post by steve817 »

What type of bullet do these rifles handle best? I have seen other articles that say semi wad cutters may be a problem but I probably don't want to be putting round nose bullets in either. I shoot JSP out of my 1892 .44 mag but seem to have a hard time finding any in .357

Try several bullet types and see what will feed. My Rossi .357 will feed 158 gr swc loads just fine, reckon I got a good one.
