I just bought a .357 Colt Python and some Hornady .357 Critical Duty 135 gr Flex Lock ammo and it does not fit in the 6round cylinder.. Is there a special .357 ammo I should use. The Hornady .38 Critical Defense fits fine

There is a lot to consider to safely answer this question. Had you been shooting. 38 prior to trying the .357 ammo? This can leave carbon that will make it hard to fully insert the longer .357 ammo. Is the ammo sticking out the front of the chamber, rear of the chamber (shallow or fouled chamber), or not fitting at all due to thickness? Would need to first know what way it doesn't fit to diagnose further. Might be worth showing to a local dealer or qualified gunsmith. Best wishes!
