[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1824305, member: 2736"] I would recommend a 6 grove barrel for the .357 caliber And re barreling instead of re boring. Drilling and rifling are best done while a barrel is still a blank and full sized. Contoured barrels are not as ridged and therefore will flex more, Producing a less quality/precision bore. I have some experience with re bored barrels and they have all shoot ok but that the kindest I can be. If you want accuracy you will have the best chance with a re barrel. If you just want to shoot heavy bullets, the 308 is almost the same velocity as the 358 Win with 180 and 200 grain bullets and just another option. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
