I reamed the chamber on my Handi rifle .357mag to .357 maximum and have about 200 once fired cases ready to go and need some samples
of cast GC and j-word projectiles in the 180 - 200 -250 grain sizes, spire point or round nose to try before buying a mold and or factory
bullets. Thanks for any help, Ronald Woodruff

You would probably get a better response if you posted in the "want to buy" portion of the swapping and selling forum further down the page.

I would look for the ranch dog 190 RNFP variant.... I have one, but wouldn't be able to cast any up for a whole. They are gas checked, and a TL design. But I have lubed/sized them in the past with decent results.

I have the RCBS .358 180 Sil mould. What alloy do you need these in? I have linotype, WW, 10/1

I've got a box of Hunters Supply 250 grainers and another of their 300 grainers. You can take a look at them here: http://www.hunters-supply.com/shop/index.php?cPath=24&osCsid=4bbe002070ac3f6317912f3909475bb1 They came pre-lubed, but no gas checks installed yet. I'd be willing to send you a 5-6 of each if that would help you out. Unless you have a pretty long throat the 300 grainers may be too long. PM me your address and I'll try to get them in the mail later this week.

A friend is borrowing my mould, but if you're interested in trying some, I might be able to talk him into casting you some and sending them raw for you to size/lube/check.
