Uberti rolling block
« on: November 21, 2012, 01:52:49 PM »
does anyone know if a uberti .357 mag
rolling block reproduction is stout enough
to take a re-chamber to 357 max and be
safe and reliable?
i've no experience with one and that would
be the sole reason for obtaining it.

    It has been done many times before,  Pressures are not that much higher in the max.  Most people shooting the .357 Max are handloaders so your safety is in your hands, Factory loaded ammo should not be a problem.
