To the best of my knowledge there is no case that can be used to make a 357 maximum case without reducing a case that is too big in diameter and cutting down the rim. If you ever find one that is more popular than the maximum case let us know. The cases are still reasonable and you can even find new loaded ammo once in a while.

Hodgdon, Lyman, Speer, Sierra, Hornady = reliable resources
so and so's pages on the internet = not reliable resources
Alway check loads you find on the internet against manuals.
NEVER exceed maximum listed loads.

Bullseye sells Dan Wesson 357Max ammo, and  GBO sponsor Reed's Ammunition, sells Max ammo also. ;)
