If you're trying to load for both, and depending on what the twist of that Rossi is ( for years they made all their levers a 1 in 30 twist) go with a 125 gr.
Use unique for the wheel gun and H110 for the lever. Different barrel lengths. You'll get a good burn out of the rifle barrel.
I'm assuming sunshine state is florida, so this place will ship to you. They have 158's and 125's in stock, flats and rnfp's.
Coated cast is a good option too, just stay away from Black Bullets. 90% chance you'll get the wrong diameter from them.
I only buy from ban state friendlies.
They are very much ban state friendly. Ordered buckets of their 230 gr when I lived in mass.
Mods don't like it when people say "Company X ships to Mass" . Something about the dyke a.g. Maury Heely it calls itself?
3 die is fineWhat 357/38 die set is recommended?
Is the Lee 3-die set fine? The delixe carbide 3die seems to be the same as the standard.
Who is using the Factory Crimp die? The 4-die set is more
What he said.Coated cast is a good option too, just stay away from Black Bullets. 90% chance you'll get the wrong diameter from them.
I prefer 4 die because I like to crimp in a separate station. All my reloading is done with a separate crimp die. Seating and crimping in one is just weird, I dont like it. I feel I can do a better job adjusting the dies if they are separate, specially if you are trying a few different bullet weights which means shorter and longer bullets.What 357/38 die set is recommended?

thisI use both bullseye and 231 for 38 special.
2400 for 357's. I like 2400 because it fills the case three quarters.14.8 grains over 158 fmj, not possible to double charge.
