Almost every gunshop or range around here has a message/bulletin board hanging on a wall with all kinds of info pinned on it. Might be worth checking out. Talk and ask about reloading supplys whenever you go to the range or gunshop, a lot of info goes on by word of mouth.

I would think any major bullet company would make the 38 spl/357 mag and a 44 spl/44 mag. The 38 spl standard jacketed bullet is .357 and the standard lead bullet is .358. The lead bullets are slightly larger as they are softer and this helps seal the bullet gases.

I know there's going to be some that will say they load 9mm bullets in the 38 spl all the time. It can be done, but I don't recommend it. To loose a fit and will have no accuracy to speak of. And by all means save beg borrow or steal all that brass.
