I wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if the lack of interest in .357 barrels is because of the bad batch of .357 barrels they turned out a while back.

I know how bad they were. I got one. It's horrible. Someday I'll probably get it reamed out to .357 max. Maybe it'll group, then But right now I'm flat disgusted with trying to make it work. Don't even wanna LOOK at it right now.

Try shooting your .357 Mag without a roll crimp. Mine reduced the group size by about 3" when I stopped using a roll crimp and started using a taper crimp like a rifle uses.

I got one of the last 20 from NEF about two months ago.

Badgerrr if you don't like your 357 barrel, would you consider selling it? Idahobronco@aol.com
