I have been buying from Missouri Bullet Company and they sell cast .357 diameter bullets "for match barrels" so the implication is a perfectly sized bullet would be better than one which was oversized.
With the highly recommended HEWC from Midway out of stock, I was going to go with Missouri Bullet Company's coated DEWC:

PPC #2 - Hi-Tek
.358 Diameter
.38 Special
148 Grain DEWC-BB
Brinell 12
For PPC Velocity
Hi-Tek 2-Extreme Coating from J&M Specialized Products P/L
Color may vary
Price per box of 500
Price: $40.00
I'd appreciate thoughts or even better, experiences with this bullet.
