In my experience Kimber, Colt and Aftermarket Glock 9mm barrels appreciate .356 boolits.
9mm Beretta, Browning, S&W, and a Girsan High Power clone appreciate .358 boolits.

Thanks for the replies gents.
If I do get a Ruger 9mm 1911, I will try both the .356 and .358 9mm boolits in my inventory.
The .358 Boolit in question is an Arsenal Copy of a Lyman 358242...

Hello,
Sometime this year I may add a Ruger 9mm 1911 to my inventory. I know my Kimber 9mm 1911 likes .356 boolits. I have only run fmj or plated in my Auto Ordnance 9mm. I also have plenty of...

I am willing to trade for once fired or new .357 Magnum brass (Starline, Remington, Federal)

Hello,
I am generally moving towards Badger Grips for my GP-100’s. As a result, I am selling off 2 lots of grips that are being neglected. Payment by money order, cash or check please.

Lot #2 still available. Price drop to $50 shipped in CONUS.

Monday evening bump. Surely some wants a nice #358311!
Forum: Swappin & Sellin
If anyone has a used but serviceable dual cavity Lyman 356402, I will gladly trade Lot #2 for it.
Forum: Swappin & Sellin
The #358311 produces a plan, flat based bullet that weight between 158-159 grains with my approximate hardball alloy

Hello,
I am consolidating my casting efforts to 135-148 grain boolits for the .357 Magnum and 125-132 grain boolits for the .38 Special. I do not have the resources to support casting efforts...
Hello,
I want to get the proper steel top punch for my Lyman 358432? I am currently using an Aluminum top punch and it is a nightmare to remove from my lube sizer. What proper top punch does the...

Dual Cavity 358311 on the way to my home!
Is the #311 top punch (that I use for my 358242) the correct punch ?
Thanks Paul.
Nice group Shopdog.
At 7 yards my 1 group with 3.6 grains of W231 was similar looking.

I have W231, W244, W572 and Unique on hand. I am trying to not use Unique because I have my 1/2 can reserved for my 358242 9mm loading and it has been impossible to find locally. Glad the W231 seems...
Tom’s molds are most excellent. I own 4 currently and dream of acquiring more:mrgreen:
Forum: Cast Boolits
I am intending to get a Lyman 358311 mold soon. What powders do users of this boolit like ? I am asking this with standard pressure .38 Special loads in mind. I am hoping Winchester powders are...

Thanks for the replies Gents.
I do have the Lee push through sizers in .357 and .358. The .358 is dirty from Alox coated boolits. The .357 is clean and intended to be used on boolits that will be...
Initial results with my 3 inch GP-100 .38 were very promising. Top accuracy was with 3.6 grains of W231. Also 3.8 grains of W244 did well. All shooting was DA fire at 7 yards and if I did my part all...

I agree about the thinner walled 9mm brass for “chubby” 9mm boolits. All of my .357 coated and .358 conventional lubed (Thompson Red Angel btw) boolits go into Remington 9mm brass. This combo seems...

Hello,
My want of a Beretta Storm may have to backburner until next year. I may however be able to scrape together the funds to snag a Hi Point 9mm Carbine in the next 2 months.
