Good advise, and I also agree on being very careful with the crimp.I’ll kindly suggest you order up a box of Extreme or similar plated or coated .358 SWC and load them over HP-38, Unique or AA# 5 for your mid-range loads. (You don’t want to mega-crimp plated bullets
I taper crimp all plated bullets, usually lightly, but sometimes heavier.
Light taper crimp on a light .357 Mag with an X-Treme plated SWC.
Light taper crimp on a lightly loaded Berrys 148 Gr HBWC, .38 Spl.
Heavy taper crimp on a full power load with a Powerbond 125 gr HP.
Be sure to test heavy taper crimps on plated, those passed.
