Pretty much this. most of my 357 is reloaded but what little factory stuff I buy tends to be the fiocchi

I have the Geco ammo from Sgammo. What ever is cheap.

I use FM, I'm not rapid firing my revolvers so I'm not worried about a squib.

I keep American Eagle 158 gr JSP, and Federal 158 gr Hydra-Shok JHP on hand. I mostly shoot Winchester 38 Special 130 gr FMJ though, cleaner and more fun.

Dont use Freedom Munitions 38special or 357 in Lever Guns (handguns seem to be OK), the crimps suck a fat one and dont hold, the bullets get pressed down into the case when they are chambered. I bought 500 rounds of each caliber and have about 50 rounds of each that have this issue, mostly with RP, S&B, and Winchester brass.

I have excellent luck so far with Cabela's Herters ammo, shot about 500 rounds of .38 and .357 with zero issues so far.

I scored a 500rd case of .357 mag 125gr hpj rem golden saber a couple of years ago for $215

otherwise, good ol' rem green box .38 wherever it's cheap..

my last box i picked up is a box of 50 Remington .357 Magnum 158 GR Soft Point. i paid $5.00 for this box a few months ago from a fellow i met who was having a yard sale. ammo wasn't out with the other stuff, but he offered it to me after i purchased an OldSchool Alessi ankle holster from him for $8.00. it seems he liked the timeless S&W J-frame about as much as i do. he was a very nice guy and about as old as dirt.

I lead cast my bullets and reload them.
However I do keep a stock of some factory loads though and my favorite is American Eagle 158 grain JSP. Also the Federal Champion 158 grain JSP.

I use those because they are the most accurate in my lever gun. I also shoot a revolver.

From what I've seen "generally" is that 357 Mag ammo is running about $.50 per round, plus shipping and tax if they apply.

Start thinking about reloading is my advice.
