compairing the price of ammo your better off with the 357.. Beautiful looking revovler by the way.. I just made the same decision with the Ruger Blackhawk.
There are many loads in .38 Special and .357 Mag.
Some Old School cops that packed 357s when their lives depended on it called the round "The Thunderbolt" for very good reasons. That's why the .357 SIG was developed for semi auto. The 357 will penetrate metal that'll stop .45LC and .45 ACP.
That's an Apples to Oranges comparison because the 45s were/are for CQC w/o barriers. The 357 Mag was originally sold for hunting,kind of marginal for Big Stuff.
@Gmissile Very good points. Just purchased a .45LC to go with my .357 Magnum. I have noticed that the .45LC is hard to come by as well. Wish I had known that when I bought it.
There's always Re-Loading, if you have the time and the inclination.
I know that if I ever get a .44 Mag, I'll have to commit to re-loading, especially for .44 Special---which is more scarce than .44 Mag.
I wish the Eastern Bloc ammo makers would expand their caliber offerings and snap out of it and use more aluminum and brass for cases. Steel case can't be the only reason their stuff costs so much less than Western makers, that are milking the market.
MultiGunMan, A guy told me to use fingernail polish instead of locktite. Will do the same job. Watch all the screws. I keep a screw driver with my pistols and always tighten screws before I shoot and after. I've lost screws out of the trigger guard in the bottom of the guns. Last thing to come loose was the base pin release screw and nut. Am going to try the fingernail polish. Good luck
@rolyatknarfable Thank you. I like them as well. I've also had the same problem you have. On mine the screw that holds the ejector rod has come loose a couple of times. I'm thinking of getting some removable locktite to cure the problem.
@MichaelkSimmons It's definately stainless. Uberti may have only listed their most popular versions of this pistol on the website. Or, the stainless version may have been discontinued.
you tube must be messing with my subscriptions cause this video didnt come up for me. that is a beautiful gun. i havent shot many single action revolvers just 2 different single sixs and i think that i shoot them better one handed. how about you
@josephd27 That's odd. I wounder why it didn't show up in your subscriptions? You'd love the Colt Peacemaker replica's, they're great fun!!! I do shot them a little better 2 handed though.
@TheMultiGunMan idk what is up with it. i guess it matters how the gun fits in my hand feels funny shooting them to handed. very awesome looking pistol though. enjoyed the video very much
Nice gun. Can't wait to see you shoot it. It makes me want to go get my gun soon. But patience endureth the soul......If I wait then I will be able to get what I wan cause I only have one vhance.....It sure is pretty;-)
very nice! where is it made?

@Cloverthorn Thank you. The 357 Magnum is more widely available as well in my area. I also considered buying the Ruger Blackhawk as well.

.357 makes more sense,in any application.

I have a pair of these. Blued, not stainless. Use them for cowboy action shooting. Great revolvers. Only problem I've had is screws coming loose.

I've looked at their website and there's no .357 in stainless. Does the website just say the more popular models or what?

@Mr45Bullitt Thanks Bill. I suppose you're right about more variety/cheaper etc. with it being the .357 Magnum.
