.357 Remington Maximum -
http://ammoguide.com/?catid=66 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the .38 Special was "stretched" into the .357 Magnum and became such a commercial success, it was probably only a matter of time until the logical next step would be attempted: the .357 Remington Maximum. In 1983, several industry giants were looking at elongating the .357 Magnum case, and the final result was commercialized by Remington.
It actually looked better on paper than in application. Soon after release, it was discovered that .357 Maximum revolvers of all makes, when used with .357 Maximum factory ammunition, were experiencing excessive gas cutting of the forcing cone within 1000 rounds, a rather annoying interaction between cylinder gaps and ultra-high pressure/velocity cartridges.
Several manufacturers came up with novel solutions; for example, Wesson Arms discounted 2nd and 3rd barrels if the customer needed them. Note that Maximum revolvers will shoot standard .357 Magnum ammunition. Current factory ammo sports a 158 gr. bullet at 1825 fps with 1168 ft-lbs from a 10 inch barrel.

* HODGDON H-110 CHARGE REDUCTION WARNING
H110 Loads should not be reduced more than 3%.
Reduce H110 Loads 3% and work up from there. H110 if reduced too
much will cause inconsistent ignition. In some cases it will lodge a
