I am hoping that you are all barrel savvy. I have a
new Ruger 77/357. I have 4,500 rounds of 38 Special
loaded with cast 158 gr boolits. Will firing a lot of
them in this rifle in any way harm the chamber. I am
thinking of the 1/10 of inch difference in 357 Mag brass
and 38 Special brass. Will there be any damage to
that area? Gas cutting or other effects?
If there is, I will just sell the 38 Special and use just
357 Magnum.
