NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT TRY THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would be 38cal. ammo
.357 Magnum and .38 Special (to include +P and +P+ loadings).
No, do not, under any circumstances, attempt this.
You will have to test fit to see if the cylinder will turn
No. However, .38 Special ammo CAN be safely fired in a .357 Magnum firearm. Both cartridges use a bullet that is .357 in diameter- but the .357 magnum is longer, and more powerful.
It CAN be, but would have it checked by a competent pistol smith first.
38 Special and .357 Magnum.
You can only shoot what is printed on the barrel. Mag and short mag are not the same.
If the gun is marked 2-3/4 on the barrel, that is the maximum length shell that the gun will shoot.
.357 Sig and .357 Magnum are not even close. .357 Magnum is a rimmed, straight walled cartridge for use in revolvers. .357 Sig is a rimless, bottle necked cartridge used in semiautomatic pistols. They don't even use the same bullet diameter. Other than the name, there is almost no similarity. In other words, NO.
Yes, however, they may not cycle thru, and need to be loaded one at a time. Chamber will need cleaning after shooting the shorter magnum cartridge.
