'Bout 98 grains...

'Bout 0.360"...

A Lee mold?...

If this critter is for a 38/357 I wonder what it might be used for other than just shooting. Seems pretty light for a 357 Magnum...

Thanks...BCB

I'd look at LEE.
it looks bout what I hear their 100gr 9mm mold looks like.

Lee 358-105-SWC
This is the lightest Lee mold for the 38/357 although the lighter 9mm boolits will sometimes work.
It isn't uncommon for different alloys and an individual mold from Lee to cast either lighter or heavier than standard.

I think that tazman has it. He beat me to it!

Looks like a good bullet to replicate the first mid range .38 Special that was factory loaded with 2.2 grs of Bullseye......
