A while back 357Maximum started talking about a Lyman mould #358627, I liked what I read here and also Glen Fryxell's article on this boolit. I decided to get in on the group buy for the clone when I found in a gun shop NIB #358627 two cavity. I told the shop owner to hold it for me and I brought it home today, looked at it closely and see it is a #358627 CW no gas check. What have I got here, thought I was ahead of the game by finding an original, but not so. This is not a boolit that I intend to shoot a lot, I like the .35 cal. and I am always trying to pick up more .35 cal. moulds. I'm thinking I can't drive this one as fast as a gas checked version and if that is the only case that's probably OK. I didn't like what I was hearing about Lee's recent work and dumped quite a chunk on this one.
Anyone had any experience with this boolit or know any of the history, I would appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks,
