Light wt plinker

[Blammer]

Ok got a hold of a 380 mould, 103gr with 96/4 lead/ant alloy.

They drop at .359 so sizing to .358 is good for my 357.

Here they are lubed with some 'Pink' lube from wiljen.

I like the looks of it. You going to run em hot or target loads? Are those 38 cases they are loaded in? I think I can make out +P on the head stamp. If so, do you run a lot of cast 38 stuff in your 357? If you do, do you have problems with lead build up in the cylinder ahead of the case mouth that will interfere with chambering 357 later. I would love to shoot 38 plinkers in my 357 as I have a ton of 38 brass but was concerned about the lead build up. I don’t have a lot of 357 brass and would love to use that for just full house loads. If you do get lead how hard is it to remove after shooting?
Thanks

run hot or target loads? Target for now, but could run them hot, may try it just for fun.

Yes that is 38 spcl +P brass, have lots of it. I do run lots of 38 spcl in my revolver. I usually clean the cylinder before using 357mag brass. I've not encountered any build up in the cylinders to prevent me from using the 357mag brass.

I don't get leading. If I ever do get leading, a few strands of chorboy around a mop and about 4 strokes and it's gone.
