I have a .357 mag M66 model and I know I can throw .38 and .38 special out of it, but my main question, Can I throw .38 HP and .38 special HP rounds out of it?
Alrighty, thank you for clearin that up for me. Cant wait to take this monster to the local range and try it out.The only difference between the 38 and the 357 is the 357 is .10 inch longer to prevent loading in a gun chambered for 38. as far as HP, SP. JHP those are bullet types and are suitable for either.
Yep .... load and go. If HP's would harm a .357 either in .38 or .357 mag, I would have destroyed a lot of guns in my life. Just keep any body parts clear of the area of the wheel when shooting, so you don't lose them.The only difference between the 38 and the 357 is the 357 is .10 inch longer to prevent loading in a gun chambered for 38. as far as HP, SP.

good to know, I carried a Ruger SR9 for the last 2 years, over the summer I had a self defense situation and the darn thing after my warning shot refused to chamber the next round, So I mentioned to my uncle I wanted a revolver, and he hooked me up with a .357 M66 4 inch. All heavy, but im itchin to shoot it.Yep .... load and go. If HP's would harm a .357 either in .38 or .357 mag, I would have destroyed a lot of guns in my life.

This may be a little off topic, but you fired a warning shot?good to know, I carried a Ruger SR9 for the last 2 years, over the summer I had a self defense situation and the darn thing after my warning shot refused to chamber the next round, So I mentioned to my uncle I wanted a revolver, and he hooked me up with a .357 M66 4 inch.

Not only are you new to the 357mag, from this comment, i'd say you're new to guns & the laws that apply to them.good to know, I carried a Ruger SR9 for the last 2 years, over the summer I had a self defense situation and the darn thing after my warning shot refused to chamber the next round, So I mentioned to my uncle I wanted a revolver, and he hooked me up with a .357 M66 4 inch.
