I reloaded some 357 magnums the other nite. I used some 158 grain hard cast bullets and loaded in sets of ten from 3.5 grains to 5.3 grains. Interestingly, the higher grain loads burned the powder better, even though it was a 3 inch barreled GP-100.

The best loads seemed to be in the high 4's, but I will have to really work on this. A 3 inch barrel is not a target pistol anyway.
