My experience is that the .223 case does not make a good basis for .357 caliber cartridges, it is just not large enough in diameter even if you ream the necks. That is why the 350 legend has a unique case. You can do it, you have to blow out the case so it is more like the 350 legend.

The 9x23 Win was supposed to mimic the 357 Magnum in a 1911:

Also, for custom apps, for something a little longer, you could use 9mm win mag.

No sure what you are trying to do, but there are some options.

There’s a .357 AR that he knows everything about.
