[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3009914, member: 41653"] Cast up a bit of this and that. Lyman 358156. Comes out about 161 grain once I get the gas checks on. i haven't tried them yet in my 357, but supposedly these are the bees knees. Two-cav mold seems slow.[ATTACH=full]103636[/ATTACH] Lyman 358495. 141 grain button-nose wadcutters, they drop at 147g. Ever since SWMBO graduated from the .22 pistol to the .38s, I burn thru these.
