Weight of .357 Magnum Round?
Ok. So I've searched and searched and cannot find this info...
How much is 1 Round of .357 Magnum? (To be specific, really looking for 5 and 6 round weights...) Generally speaking that is. I know it varies, but I'm just looking for a weight to use to multiply to figure out the loaded weight of some revolvers I'm looking into.

My hand-loaded 125 grain Gold Dots weigh in at ~0.510628571 ounces/round
or 223.4 grains.

That would be A LOT of lead loaded up in a revolver. Originally Posted by GrumpyBear

Re: Weight of .357 Magnum Round?
Doesn't the weight depend on both the type of the bullet and the amount of powder within the case? (And to a much lesser degree, the brand of the brass.) Originally Posted by DaveyC

Re: Weight of .357 Magnum Round?
Oh I totally understand that. I'm just trying to get some ballpark figures to take a look at what revolver weighs what for carry...Trying to see how it compares to what I'm used to carrying... Originally Posted by Fortytwo
