My 44 BBB & 41 BBS both feeds/cycles them just fine.
I Have a Big Boy steel in 357magnum that will cycle 148 grain wadcutter in a 38 special shell. Same cartridge won't cycle in my Big Boy Brass.
First, welcome to the forum here. Like Vaquero, I load my own, but, early on used some Fed American Eagle ammo in .357[158gr JSP] that work very well. You'll need to search for ammo and hopefully, get shipped to your place. Or, find it locally. Good luck in your search and enjoy that Henry.iceman-cometh wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 7:53 amHi guys.
I have a new Henry BB coming in, the "X" model, and I'll use it for target and fun shooting with .357 and with a suppressor with .38 special ammo. I don't reload and I have no interest or patience to learn that skill, as I am somewhat of a klutz and would likely blow up the house and infuriate my wife.
So I need some recommendations, specific recommendations, for manufactured ammo in .38 special and.357, that will work smoothly in my new rifle and be accurate.
What do you suggest that you've used successfully?
Sorry to hijack your thread buddy! As I mentioned in my post, I really like Federal 158gr in both 357 and 38sp. I've not run any others yet, but those have run flawlessly in my BB steeliceman-cometh wrote: ↑Tue Jun 07, 2022 7:53 amHi guys.

Get ready to pay around .70 ea for 357 and about .40 for 38 special. Im not a fan of a steady diet of 38 special in guns chambered for 357. Others do it and like it. To each there own.
