Originally posted by gd357 The .357 max has more length than a .357 mag (.315" to be exact). Another step up, similar to the .38 spl and the .357 mag.

The Maxi is also loaded to higher chamber pressures than the Magnum is: 35,000 psi for the Mag and 40,000 psi for the Maxi. Revolvers suitable for the Mag are not suitable for the Maxi, chiefly because their cylinders are far too short.
