I echo CT-Shooter comment on loading both 357 mag and 38 special in the loading tube together in my BBB . I had no problems cycling... It's the one I take to the range every time. The target results are excellent. Very pleased.

My Winchester .357 has stamped on the barrel .357 cartridges only. I'll heed their request as I reload anyway so no difference to me.

My big boy 357carbine didn't like to eject the 38 cases cleanly, so I was sent a couple hundred 357 cases by a member here on the forum, and then ordered another five hundred or so from a supplier. I loaded some 38 level 357 length rounds, and they cycled and grouped well. The 357 pressure loads also grouped tightly. Problem solved.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
