I never thought that any .357 bullet would retire my Keith Style bullets, but this one has. It is one great bullet! Out of my Marlin or TC Contender it just shoots good! I want to ventilate a deer with one this year!

I'm also going to try it PaperPatched as a deer thumper in my 9.3's
a pinch or two of fast powder should get it up enough to ventilate a WT broadside inside 50 yds.
Soon my friends, very, very soon!!!!

MTJerry, all you had to do was ask for it to be Plain base. If you look at the list on page 1 you will see PB mixed with GC even in the same mold.
I have a mold from the last run, (hope to get it back from Altheating when he gets his from this run ) This Boolit has harvested 4 deer for my father and a nice Doe for my Niece with a Rook rifle I built. 6.5gr of 800x for 1250 FPS with a 357 mag case reaches right out and drives a hole clear threw deer.
I am in for a Plain base 160 gr version of this Boolit.

what is so funny about that is some will tell you a 180gr boolit out of a 3030, going only 1250fps isn't even fit for Gophers

Jim, I just read post #264 I didn't realise how much work you had packaging the moulds in addition to orginising the GB. So a big Thank You is in order ! FB
I agree with FB, thanks to Jim and anyone else that helped!
That is why they pay SciFiJim the Heavy Coin!
And the word might be?

An update.
Got the order in a couple of days ago and working on processing it. My goal is the have the whole thing ready to mail out on Monday. I am currently working six days a week so only have a few hours each evening to work on the group buy. I am taking pictures as I go and will post a pictorial of the process after I get them all mailed.
SciFiJim
Way to go!!!!
Going to be a whole bunch of happy people here shortly!!!!

Thanks, SciFiJim! This will be my first brass mold and I have to admit that I have been excited. Sure looking forward it its arrival.

Can't wait to try this one out! It will be ran through my Taurus tracker, K-38, and my wife's marlin 1894!
Anyone have any good starting points for load data?
I'm thinking some charge of 2400, or 296/H-110
What do you guys have in mind?
