357 Sig reloading questions

[Guns4545]

Anything special need to be done with the 357 Sig brass or bullet seating? Plan on using Lee dies. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Size the brass first with a 40 sw. then size with 357 sig die for shoulder only. Then normal process with a factory crimp die

^This is what I have done for years. Now that I use all Dillon dies on my 550, I don't need to do that any longer... For Lee dies, I suggest doing it.

For powder, I like Ramshot Silhouette, Power Pistol or Win231/HP38.

Never loaded 367 sig on my Dillon. But I did that with my Hornady dies and it worked great. With the carbide dies no lube needed and no stuck cases ever
