That's a pretty limited amount of data for loading the .357 and I'm a bit concerned that there is no differentiation between cast and jacketed bullets.

I recommend you get load data from reloading manuals or powder company websites and do the math to set your volumetric drop as mentioned before. The table leaves off some good powders for the cartridge and could cause problems with driving cast or swaged bullets too fast.

I haven't had much trouble using Photobucket.
