Hmm, I have a couple 357 barrel blanks in the bin...that's a good idea. I was going to do a 357 Max on a contender frame, but I have a couple extra Howa Mini's that would make the switch easy enough. I wonder how it would compare? I bought 250 of the basic brass to size down for a 7.62 factory Howa Mini barrel I opened up the chamber with a Grendel reamer to improve it a bit. Figured sizing the basic brass down would be a one shot deal that wouldn't require fireforming at all.
