Is there a mold made to cast boolits for a .380 pistol? I have a North American Arms Guardian and would like to make a few CB for it.

Lee makes a dandy little 9mm round nose mold that is around 100 grains. Works great with 3 grains of Bullseye in every .380 that I've tried it in.

The Lee 356-102-1R mold is about $18 from Midsouth.

Jim is right. That's the most reliable load I've found for 380. If you want a swc try the Lee 358-105swc. The swc may tend to jam if you dont load it just right (not too much band above the case) and use a taper crimp.

I use the Lyman 356242 in 90gr for my 380. Just a plain round nose with a single small lube groove.

Anyone ever try the Lyman 356-632 , (100gr)? I've been looking for one for years. Just found a Lyman356-404 (95 gr), but have not had a chance to try it yet.
