I've got two Maxis, they're both on SB2 frames, but that's just me.  It'll handle just about anything you can put in a SB1 frame.  Enjoy, they're fun.

 I think you will love the .357 mag. As stated it will handle all .357 mag ammo. If you check around the site, there are several folks shooting .360 Dan Wesson also. Alot of the chambers are a little long.
 I bought a new .357 mag last December. Mine will almost take a .357 max. So it will be going maximum shortly ;)
