Lyman 358425 and 385423

[Burnt Fingers]

Alright,

I stumbled into these two molds about a month apart. They actually both cast the same boolit, a 121 gr wadcutter. I have a feeling the 423 is just marked wrong.

They sure are cute little cans. But I can't find any loading data for them, should I just go with 358242 data? I'd like a nice light short range load for this boolit.

The Lyman 44th edition handbook has load data for that boolit. I believe that manual can be downloaded online.
It also lists data for the 358242 and the data is identical for the powders listed for both.

I have the 358425, 121gr wc it is really accurate to 50 ft.
It is really good for knocking squirrels out of trees.

Thanks.

By the way, there was no information listed about overall length for those two boolits in that manual.

Did you by any chance "kick" the numbers on that second mould. The 423 was a .452 cherry./beagle

I remember the 452423 as being "the" bullet for the 45 AR.

Nope. I'll get a picture of it.
