Lets not go there. Read the 2010 version of the Hornady reloading manual and you will see exactly what I said. Yes, there are 110 grain bullets made for 38/357. Are they everyday common in 357, no. Are they available, yes. All my .357 reloads are 125 grain and not 158. Mike Learn something new every day. I wasn't aware the .30C standard bullet was 158 grains. I would have ASSumed it was about 110-125. WAIT. I read that again. So 110 gr in .357 is common? Wow...OK. That's the beauty of rolling your own. 110 grains in a .357? Really? OK

Yes, but there is no point shooting such tiny bullets in .357 then comparing them to a rifle cartridge. I don't look for store made bullets for a single action revolver nor would I load the smallest or near smallest bullets for said SA wheel gun. Everyone is allowed to make odd choices, the beauty of the world we live in. I will politely go away now.
Pass the gravy.

110 gr in 357 is available, and out of a carbine barrel, they will scream at well over 2000 fps. If memory serves me correctly, closer to 2400 fps. A 158 gr .357 mag out of a carbine will be pushing 1800 fps, and if you load your own, you can get them up to or slightly over 2000 fps. So I would say that a 30 carbine would be well below a 357.
