I picked up these boolits from an estate. The man who did the casting passed away, and his son did not know the first thing about anything. I was told they were .357's when I bought them.

They look like Lyman 358429, or 358430, semi wad cutters, but they weigh 188 grains.

I also have over a hundred that weigh 166 grains.

Also, they measure .360 to .361.

They are gas checked boolits. I tried to take some pictures, I hope they are helpful in identification.

Second question, what do they fit? too big for .357/38 special, can they be for 38 Smith & Wesson?
If anyone can identify them, the next step will be to trade, or sell them to someone on this forum who can use them.

Hey, don't ask me why that one picture is upside down, it wasn't in my folder!

Thanks for all the help.

I believe those are for a 35 Remington rifle cartridge those would be a nice boolit for a 35.

Would also fit a 350 Remington Magnum.

It looks like this, but the length of the NOE boolit is .836
Longer than the one pictured above.
It does fit the diameter of a 35 caliber
