Are you looking for Mag or planning a Max conversion? There was a Max barrel for sale in Minnesota last week on A******t. likely still there, but the website is down right now.
edit- it is an encore barrel from EABCO

Once you go max you never go back. I bought a 357 mag new in 1997 that shot really bad this was for IHMSA had a forcing cone throat. Best it ever shot was 3-5" at 25yds so be careful not sure if tc has changed chambering profiles.

I am not dead set on .357 I may do 350 Legend instead.
Eds has several options in stock.
