I recently got my hands on some 358156-HP bullets for my .357 magnum by making a private purchase from a home-caster. I was wondering if there was a place that I could buy a similar bullet for .357 or .44 magnum. The hardness needs to be around 11 so they will open up.
They seem like a great bullet for a do-it-all load...cut nice holes in paper and open up on game.
Also, is there a jig or tool that you can purchase to drill holes into .357 or .44 bullets to make your own hollow pionts...as you can with .22LR ammunition?
Results from 1250fps impact...bullet weighs just under 150gr.
I am not a caster, yet...no spare time now with job and small kids.
