My barrel must measure .357 because I slugged it for Dardas ( when he was in business still ) and he was sending me .358 bullets. That's great for my Lee cast bullets measure at .358. But, I want to powder coat and only have a Lee .357 resizer and not a .358. I've read that powder coating will add at least .001" to the diameter making the cast bullet .359".
The question concerns accuracy. Should I (1) resize the cast bullets and powder coat up to .358" (or more), (2) powder cast and shoot a .359" (or more bullet), (3) buy at .358 resizer, or other? What is your experience tell you?
