    Score! Lee 358-150-SWC six cavity

    The dearly departed Lee 358-150-SWC just might be my favorite .38 Special boolit of all. Never had a revolver that didn't like it with 3.4 grains Bullseye. Actually I've never found a powder or load that wouldn't shoot it well. Lee discontinued it before I discovered this boolit so I have made do with a used two cavity and one cavity. Was browsing Fleabay at breakfast and found a six holer in good used condition for $27.00. Took me even less time to decide to buy it than my $300.00 Marlin 336 Texan a few years ago!

    Great bullet. I have it in 2 cav that I had to rebuild and breathe life back into. They shoot great. They even shoot well from my BHP!
    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

    Having had both, I actually like it better than the Lyman version. Blasphemy, I know.
