Actually, I didn't ask for reloading data. I'm fully capable and have already worked up several loads on my own. Just brought it up as a topic of discussion. Thanks for your input all the same.I'm not about to offer reload opinions for the 1873. All I remember reading in the past it that the 1873 toggle action isn't strong enough to handle the modern .357 mag pressures, unless really toned down.

Any of you guys loading for 1873 357?
So far I've worked up loads with titegroup, VV N340, and IMR 4227. Still have unique but don't have much on hand. Just wondering if anyone else loads for one of these.

Are you using 38 special or 357 brass? I've read the 73 gets finicky about load length. I'm not doing cowboy action shooting but have interest in the future.I shoot SASS and reload for the Uberti 1873 357 magnum, 20" barrel. I use a TCFP 125gr cast from Rim Rock Bullets in Kalispell, MT and cast the same bullet. Also the load that I use for the 1873 works very well in all of my Taylor's & Company Uberti Smoke Wagon Cattleman Deluxe 357 with a 5.5" barrel.
