Can you use 38 special ammo in a 357 sig 239 handgun?
No. 357 SIG and 357 Magnum are two very different cartridges. You can use .38 Special in a .357 magnum gun, but not 357 SIG Adding to the above, the compatibility of .38 Special and .357 Magnum applies only to revolvers. You cannot cycle .38 Special in a magazine fed .357 Magnum lever action or semi automatic.

Can you shoot 357 Sig rounds in your 357 Mag Ruger pistol?
.357 Sig and .357 Magnum are not even close. .357 Magnum is a rimmed, straight walled cartridge for use in revolvers. .357 Sig is a rimless, bottle necked cartridge used in semiautomatic pistols. They don't even use the same bullet diameter. Other than the name, there is almost no similarity. In other words, NO.

Can a 357 magnum fire 38 special ammo?
A .357 Magnum revolver can, as it uses cylinders and does not require headspacing between a cartridge and a chamber. Semi automatic, lever action, etc. .357 Magnum firearms which use a headspaced chamber cannot, however.
Is 357 magnum for Glock the same ammo used in revolvers?
No. Revolvers use the rimmed .357 Magnum cartridge. While there are automatics designed to fire this cartridge (Coonan and Desert Eagle, primarily), it's not the same as the cartridge you had in mind. If you saw a Glock marked '.357', that means it's chambered for the .357 Sig cartridge - not the .357 Magnum. While the .357 Magnum is essentially a lengthened .38 Special, the .357 Sig is an entirely different cartridge, consisting of a .40 S&W casing, necked down to fit a 9mm projectile. The cartridge name is a reflection of the attempts at the designer to come up with an automatic pistol cartridge which could duplicate the performance of the .357 Magnum.

Can you use 38special bullets with a 357 revolver?

38 special and 357 magnum and nine-millimeter bullets are same if not What is difences?
They are different cartridges based on dimensions; however, the 38 and 357 can be used interchangeably in a 357 revolver. This is good because of the 38's lesser kick and greater affordability for practice. IMPORTANT: You can use a 38 round in a 357 revolver because the frame's built to handle the 357's greater strength. Do NOT fire the stronger 357 round from a revolver built for the lesser 38.
What do you use 357 sig ammo in?
