I powder coat the 440gr, the MP Molds 390gr (pointed bullet) and soon the NOE 325gr HP (pc design with no lube grooves). Works great in both my 50 Beowulf and my 500 S&W.

for revolvers I seat and crimp at the same time, for semi-auto's I always use 2 dies, one to seat and another to crimp.
I use an MP-MOLDS Lyman 525 clone in my 930 with a rifled choke, works very well.

Gas check designed bullets are more accurate with checks, even when powder coated. I gas check after powder coating.

I have quite a few Accurate molds from Tom, he makes great molds, my preference in non HP molds. My 375 Hurt&Hurt and 450 400 Nitro Express both shoot Accurate Molds boolits.

The 120gr TC and the 125gr rnfp lee molds work well in the 357Sig, I load both of them in it. Accurate molds has some molds designed for the 357Sig as well. I have a new mp-molds 115gr TC that I...

Yea, a 1-7 is going to be VERY difficult to get cycling and accuracy. I've had good luck with a 1-9 with 16-18gr of H4985 and an intermediate length gas. I do have a new to me Encore 15" 223 pistol...
