I have a 14" barrel and found some 357max ammo at two different lgs. One has Dan Wesson 158gr the other by Remington. I think the Rem would be ok, but can I use the Dan Wesson as well? Can I shoot most any 357max I fibd?

Any factory load should be OK. My 10" .357 Max Contender barrel was more accurate than I expected. It kicked and boomed a bit, but it was definitely a shooter. I often wished I had it in 14" instead of ten. That should make an outstanding deer gun.

Yup
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

Yup Agree, there is specific +p load data for the Contender that is more pressure than to be used in the revolvers chambered for the Mad Max
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch
