Absolutely! After plating they're re-swaged back to .357 with a Lee sizing die.
As of today only as a 38 special in a GP-100 with great results. I've gotta change the machine over and I'll start with some low-vel .357 mags and see how they hold up.
My alloy I'm using is 92/4/4 lead, tin, antimony and water quenched so already pretty hard showing a BHN of 15 to 15.5 before plating, I doubt the plating makes any difference in that.
