The best technique for accurately shooting a .38 caliber bullet in a .357 revolver is to use .38 special ammunition, which is specifically designed for .357 revolvers. This ammunition is slightly shorter than .357 rounds, allowing for better accuracy and performance in the revolver. Additionally, practicing proper shooting fundamentals such as grip, stance, and trigger control will help improve accuracy when shooting a .38 caliber bullet in a .357 revolver.
The Savage .308 rifle can typically accommodate a range of bullet grains.
