I have never even seen a 357 Herret rifle barrel, but have shot a lot of lead from a 14 inch t/c. What wieght bullets are you wanting to try? p.m. me an adress and I will mail you a few pages of loads for the 14 inch barrels.
Another alternative is to compare the case capacity of the 35 Remington, reduce by 20 percent, and work up from there. the working pressure of the herrett is about 7000 psi higher so you shouldn't get into too much trouble. My favorite bullet was the rcbs 35-200 D.M.
