I don't cast any more, and I think I would like to work up a couple of loads for my 357 magnum.

I used the RCBS 150 gr. SWC for years in my IPSC loads. Nothing special...as close to Lyman #2 alloy as I could come, and complete satisfaction.

I think the LBT 160 gr flat point boolits would work nicely, at least as well commercial 158 gr. SWCs, and would like to try some loads using them, "Just to see."

Are there any commercial casters that offer those particular Boolits?

I have a little #12 shot for rat & snake loads. Another time, I ordered some from a fellow on one forum...can't remember which... and it turned out to be #9. Disappointing, but too much hassle and unpleasantness to return it, so It will be used.

The on-line site that sells #12 in 10 lb lots would be a double + lifetime supply, so does anyone have a pound or three that they would be willing to part with, for a reasonable price, of course?

Thanx! :cool:

I would go down to the S&S section and put a Want To Buy on the shot and try the bullet exchange down there to see if someone has some of the LBT to send you.
