Hey everyone,

Im looking for info in any issues with OAL of a 357 mag loaded with a NOE 358-429 in a GP100 cylinder. From my specs Im showin .003 to long.

My cylinder is 1.61ish.

Maybe someone has a half dozen unsized I may try to make sure?

You should have about .020 extra space before the end of the cylinder. NOE claims their crimp to meplat dimension is .351 with the "ideal" case length of 1.29 that'd be an OAL of 1.64". The cylinder plus rim thickness on my GP is 1.661 (1.611+ .050 rim). The Lyman 358429 shoots very nice out of my GP100 by the way.
