Bulldog Boolit length

[Iamscotticus]

Can somebody advise what the longest boolit length that will fit in the magazine is?
Thanks.

  My calipers say .736 Max.  I just happened to by wondering that myself, and had a mag, screwdriver, and caliper on hand.

So would it be correct to say .75 will Not fit?
Or if I had .75, is it close enuf to sand down the tails a little?

I'm going to answer my own question:

Phil says .740
Couldn't they have just pushed it to .75?

I use the Lyman 358429 it just works length wise at .748 and cast of 40-1 it drops at 178 grains. When I say just works length wise I mean it just barely functions through the magazine.  With Travis valve it hovers around 860 FPS for four or five shots I think.

I would recommend contacting Nick at NSA and asking about / buying a "sampler pack" of his various .357 bullets.
 He is a recognized and GTA Approved vendor with EXCELLENT reputation and Customer Service and Satisfaction.

 I shoot and hunt quite regularly with Nick. I know for a fact He has done LOTS of field testing on ALL of his bullets, as well as specifically for his own (2) Bulldogs.. (I have borrowed/used his Bulldogs on coyote hunts).
 I believe he offers his Bulldog bullets in various sizing from .355 to .358 (?) to find the perfect size for your particular gun.

 The best way to contact him for questions, is through his website email address here :

Nick’s 120 grain hp shoots very well.

My 142 grain 357 are extremely accurate in bulldog or the 110 grain if you want a little lighter.

Thanks guys for the info!  I will start with the recommendations as they have shot well in your BDs.
I'm having my barrel shortened by 6" so my results may be different.
