Another vote for a belled and chamfered .357 case. Just place case into chamber and tap home with a hammer. Takes no time and does no damage to the cylinder. I shoot Cowboy Action and will clean up...

The 97's in 1907 have 2-5/8" chambers. They need to be reamed to 2-3/4". Extractor issues are not that uncommon with the 97 either. I know this because I have an '07 right now that is having that...
