Most Accurate Ammo for .357 Mag Henry? | Marlin Firearms Forum
2014年1月20日 · The 50 yard results were surprising to me and a bit disappointing. There was quite a lot of variance and the rifle didn't like the .357 mags I fed it today. The 158g .357 FMJ grouped the worst, with both at around 3". The best were my two hardcast .38 125g LFP at 1" and 1 1/4". Second best my two .38 158g hardcast at 1 3/4" each.
Best powder for .357 rifle? - Marlin Firearms Forum
2016年4月27日 · .357 is fairly easy to reload and a lot of powder work well in it. I have had the best luck with LilGun, Unique and 4227. LilGun for stout loads, 4227 for medium loads and Unique for lighter loads. I shoot lever action silhouette with my .357 - using 125gr XTP bullet and 6gr of Unique = same point of aim from 40 to 100 meters!

Favorite bullet weight in 357 rifles? | Marlin Firearms Forum
2007年8月4日 · The 357 in a rifle is so good at so many things you could probably find a half-dozen loads that each do one job really well. But I'm also convinced a 158-grain SP or HP can handle about 95% of them. I've shot thousands of the Remmy 125's, many more of the 158's, and now I'm playing with the 140's as a semi-compromise.
hornady rifle loads for .357 Magnum | Marlin Firearms Forum
2007年8月18日 · On the 2400, I'm not really too fond of it in rifle loads for the 357 magnum. It tends to burn dirty, and velocities spreads can vary extremely bad even with all other factors being perfect. For actual "full house" magnum loads in the 357, especially in a rifle, you'll never beat Lil' Gun, H-110, or Winchester 296.
.357 1894 on deer - need a better bullet! | Marlin Firearms Forum
2021年11月8日 · But you can never load up a .357 to equal a .44's top performance. I know there's plenty of MO members that have cleanly killed deer and hogs with the .357 Mag, but I've always considered it marginal, especially on less than optimal angled shots. The .44 Magnum will also give you 40 - 50 extra yards of sure lethality. Just my opinion. Bring ...
LOADS FOR .357 RIFLE - Marlin Firearms Forum
2009年4月30日 · I'm throwin in another vote for LilGun and a 158gr bullet. I used to use H-110 for all magnum loads for 357 and 44, LilGun has replaced it for 357's and am working with it in 44 mag and heavy 45 Colts. I have 7 rifles that I shoot 357's in and all like the 158 with LilGun and the 180's are also shooting good, just haven't worked with them as much.
What .357 Factory ammo works best in your 1894?
2011年3月1日 · That federal soft point is a great rifle load for a 357. It is destructive to soft tissue, cycles well and in my gun it will shoot an 1-1/2" group at 100 yds with a tang mounted peep. I have fire the winchester white box, the buffalo bore, and the corbon hot loads. as well as a …
.357 Magnum Rifle Loads for Cowboy Silhouette
2010年4月18日 · I have one of those hard to find Marlin Cowboy Limited rifles with a 24" barrel in .357 Magnum. I shoot cowboy silhouette and would appreciate some feedback on a good bullet weight and powder to use on the silhouettes out to 100 meters for the pistol caliber competition. I have been using 16.2g of Lil Gun with a Hornady 158g XTP bullet.
