My new Brass mold came today! It's a Mountain mold .359" 185gr WFN with a 82% Meplat that I designed for my 6" Ruger GP100 .357 Mag. for hunting and whatever else I want to blow up. Dan does a great job on these molds and i couldn't be happier with the quality and craftsmanship. Now to break her in and find her sweet spot. Boolit pics to follow!

Would really, really like to try this bullet in my 357 lever gun and in the old 35 Rem. Looks like a winner for sure!

One thing i don't have yet TrapperP is a lever gun in 357 Mag. I would love to get one in the near future and load these up. They would be a nice hunting round.

I'm sure you have read up on brass molds and their little idiosyncrasies.
once you do the break in and let the patina form you should have a great little mold there.

Here is a pic of My GP100 357 Mag that i am loading these for. Just did a trigger job on it yesterday and dropped in some dummy rounds to make sure they chambered. Going to be a rainy day here in Cleveland so might be a good day at the reloading bench making some ammo. Going to do some ladder loads with 2400 and AA#9 and see if i can find a sweet spot.
