Exflatlander,
The following data is from The Gun Digest Book of Metallic Sihouette Shooting 2nd Edition. Use it at your own risk and be sure to use safe handloading procedures while using it.
I have used some of this data and it proved to be safe in my TC. I used Remington brass and Federal 205 primers. Please not that you need to use small RIFLE primers in the 357 Max.
Federal brass was used to develop all load data
Federal 205 (Small Rifle Match) primers used to develop all loads.
This load data was developed in the Dan Wesson 40V8S (8") and the Seville Stainless Silhouette (10.5")

Hope this helps. There is also data for WW680, but the powder has been discontinued. There is a little more data for some 200 and 210gr cast bullets as well as 200gr jacketed. I have found that the recoil difference between 180gr and 200gr bullets in this caliber are hard to detect. The recoil of the TC is worse than a revolver in general, despite the 14" barrel. I shoot 180gr Jacketed and 200gr Cast. The Remington 180's are available in bulk for VERY reasonable prices and have been accurate in my TC. I get mine from
www.lockstock.com because they are in my home state and none of the local shops carry much variety in bullets. They are about $9/100 or $42/500. Better than $12/100 for most of the others. You may want to try some heavy cast in this gun if you cast, or you can get some from BTB. This round has very legitmate hunting applications.
If you have any more questions let me know.
