Fellas:
Looking for some Lee 358-125 samples to try in a 9mm before I buy a mold. I'll swap 30 or 35 caliber rifle, or 358, 44, or 45 caliber handgun.

What have you to trade? I'd be interested in 358 or 45.

Well there's a couple of lee molds that qualify for that description. Could you be more specific?

This one?

I think he means this one:

Which has changed designs since Midway took their product picture. See lee's website:
http://leeprecision.com/xcart/6-CAV-358-125-RF.html for the most current shape. Midway needs to update their picture.

If that's the one you're looking for, I have some ready. It's an awesome 9mm boolit and my favorite so far!

Sorry, should have been more specific. It is the 358-125 RF that I'd like to try. I have some on the way from TechAIG, but I appreciate the offers.

That is a good bullet in my HiPower, you'll probably like it. I use 6.8 to 7.0 grs of Blue Dot and it works fine. I started at 6.5 and worked up, but this is in the safe range in all the loading manuals I have.

I have two and six cavity Lee molds of the newer design. It doesn't look like the illustrations, it's not the bullet of this weight that was listed as a .38 S & W bullet.
