All mine are drop loop pistol style Hunters. I think that's what you call them. I watched auction sites forever to get good vintage stuff.

This is one place I know of, but I can't attest to their products:

www.rossleather.com

I own one from these guys, but their website sucks. You'll need to inquire:

I've seen a couple shoulder belts but it's been a while. Only one I know being sold right now is the shotgun belt from Blackhawk.
Another option

Ever think about making your own?
I have recipe for bandoleer, or it can be added to you design of holster.
you need, some leather, 2 thickness's, a belt and some 3/8 10mm strap, small silver rivets and die.
I have never made one for 357, but the small rivets would be nice.
I will warn you, you may get hooked, next thing you know, cell phone cases, watch bands, I made a case for my wifes TV remote

I've got both a belt and a bandolier for my .357/38 revolver/rifle combo.

The belt is an older Hunter brand. The bandolier is a newer Hunter brand.

Now I've gotta get a bandolier for the Rossi/Ruger .44 combo...

I have two vintage Hunter set ups. I like simple.

I had one built for my 45/70 Guide Gun. Told the maker to replicate the one from Quigley down Under.....should also fit my .45 and .454 cartridges just fine....... +corn

Similar to my old Hunters, Dave.
