    This caught my eye because I don’t know what an icp is. Hope to get educated.

    You need a secret decoder to decipher abbreviations here at Castboolits.
    The decoder is so secret that I only think it exists. If you fkn you mfio.

    I think it was a typo. I think he meant LCP, and in Ruger LCP.

    That's pretty funny Lamar. I'm surprised I even know what that is!

    I shoot the LEE 95 RF at .358" from mine. A neighbor has tried the LEE 105, and says they work, but his loads show a bulge at the boolit base which I don't like.

    thanks. I already have a couple 6 cav 105 molds and all I can find in the round nose is 2 cav and I wouldn't waste 50 cents on a 2 cav lee mold.

    that one interest me. At least in comes in a 6 cav. I guess I'm not going to shoot thousands of rounds through my "LCP" so I almost hate to buy another mold just for it if the 105 works. I know it runs like better in the wifes lc9

    I've been using the NOE 100gr 380 mold sized to 356 for my bersa thunder and lcp 2, works like a champ. I had to switch to an undersize die for jacketed, now I can load xtp and golddots without the bullet setback issue I was having before.

    Thanks Yall!
