I was loading some dewc bullets last night , first one I seated I still had the dies set for seating these in 357 mag brass to the crimp groove and the front band just touched the cyl throat . Since I'm not real versed in loadingfor a wheel gun is there any pluses or minus seating these in the 38 special case long so that front band in just starting into the throats like the mag length load. Seems to me just like a rifle there would be less jump to the throat??
