Star did not make dies for this caliber.  The only way to load 357 Sig on a Star would be to use a tool head for 7/8" Dies.   Use 7/8" Dies for Sizing, Bullet Seating and Taper Crimp.   Use a Star expander for 9MM.  Use a Shell Plate for 40 S&W.  You would probably need to make a few other modifications as well.
