Not a fan of 297 powder burn rate in a 357 with 125 bullets. The 297 (300-mp) burns too slow for this light of a bullet and the short barrel length is not helping the problem either.
H-110/296 (both the same powder from St Marks) is #296 powder with a slightly faster burn rate than 297, but still burns too slow for the light 125gr bullet, and worse with the short barrel.
What you are looking for is a powder with a 295 or slightly faster burn rate for the 125gr bullet in 357 mag instead. With the short 4" barrel, would dare to say you would be better with a powder in the 294 burn range isntead.
As for the 300-mp in 357, reserve it for 357 silhouette type load with a 180 grain bullet (and more barrel lenght to go with it).
Of if you are shooting 44 mag with a 8" barrel, it really shines with a 300gr bullet (296 with a 240 gr bullet).
