Anybody know of a good powder for 357Mag for rifle.

2400, H110 - there have to be a half dozen. What type of rifle?

+1

... and I would say 2400 for Jacketed and H110 (or W-296, same exact thing) for Lead, though I have not used H110.

Also Accurate No.9

W296 or H110 for max velocity for hunting loads.

If you are plinking, any suitable pistol powder will work.

VihtaVuori N110, H110, 2400, 296 for best performance. I listed 296 last because I have had a few issues with it. A perfectly safe load can show signs of pressure if left in a hot trunk all day and then shot. I have never had this problem with any of the other powders.

 

[hntrdav]

H110 or IMR4227 or H4227

Have you ever thought about reaming it to .357 Max?

OK, I"ll be different, I'll say Lil Gun! It's all I use for my heavier loads now. high velocity and lower pressures. In my 20" barreled Rossi '92 I can get 1700fps with my cast 195 gr SWC-GC. Great accuraccy and light recoil.

Lil Gun is my go-to mangum pistol powder.

Good choice! I use a similar setup for my 44.
