There is a classic "almost magnum" load using 2400 and either 158 or 173 grain SWC's and .38 Special brass. You'll have to look it up yourself.
If you put a .357 Magnum load of powder in a .38 Special case, the pressure goes way up because the .38 Special is shorter. There's also a risk that the high pressure ammo will end up in somebody's cheap RG .38 revolver and blow it to bits.
