A pointy boolit for my 350 rem mag and 35 whelen would be cool!

Anyone else think so?

Maybe something that looks like this but fatter.

These are 311365 I believe.

If you pour a soft nose ala Bruce's method it would be high BC and expand.

Paper patched in a 9.3?

I was thinking 250-275gr. would be good. The heavier it is, the better the BC gets.

If you buy the molds brass and dies Then you might as well buy the gun.

Its worked for me several times.

There is interest in 9.3x62mm for just that reason. Its got me thinking about one cause I have several 35 cal rifle molds. Nice thing is you can form brass from 30-06.

So you could use these to PP for the 9.3x62 or other 9.3,can you?

Sure, I just like the 9.3x62mm cause it can be formed easily from inexpensive brass,30-06.

I have a 9.3x62 and would love to do PP in it,so I could be in on this will think a bit more,but like the possibilities of it;)
How do you form 9.3x62 from 30/06 brass?,I thought it was to small? I have 30/06 brass for my...well 30/06 :)

Neck up 30-06 or 35 whelen brass to 375 neck with tapered expander. Then size with 9.3x62 size die till shoulder is back far enough to close bolt on your rifle. Fireform.

That's the short version from Speer reloading manual #12.

Come on people, I got dies and my rifle is on back order, I really need to get a pointy heavier .358 bullet in the works!

I want one for sure! .354 for the nose might be a bit large. I think my bore is about .350. I'll check my 350 Rem and see.

Check your lead and throat.
Its made to fill the throat.
The ogive of the nose fits in the bore.

I would be interested in such an animal for my 35 Whelen, 350 Rem mag and my 358 Winnies. Are RG's or hp's going to be offered bearcove? 280 grs looks good to me.

Swede, your'e doin it to me again. I'm already in the 358009 & 358318 so I suppose I must add the 358365. I found a custom Rem 700 with a Boyd's thumbhole stock, Krieger stainless barrel & a trigger job last fall and have only been able to shoot Sierra 225s & Hornady 250s in it. It needs some good cast bullets. Count me in on this one.

Al would have to answer that. Sending him a PM might work. I'm gonna be offline for a while, 2 month shutdown no internet.

Come on guys, I just ordered an upper for my AR-10 in 358 Winchester and really want to get one of these moulds for it. Lets think of ways we can use this thing, Let's see, 358 Win, 35 Whelen, 35 Whelen Imp., 35 Remington TC, 35-30 Win, 350 Rem Mag. It should be awsome in a 358 Win, especially in those finicky bolt actions that have feeding problems with larger meplat boolits. I am sooooo looking forward to this buy coming to fruition. Sorry you will be off line for a couple of months bearcove. Hope you return with a surprising number of orders.

The nose at .354 seems fat for most of the 35's i have.The Rem 700 Whelens and .350 mags choke on .351 noses.I am curious of the length will stabilize in the 1-16 Rem barrels.I am awaiting feedback now they will be shipping soon.

Should be a good throat fill
Have slugs that go from .3585 to .360 (lead)
I think its going to be a fun one to play with

Wow i must have tight 35 barrels.My Douglas and Remington barrels are .358 x .350.Where was your throat slug from?
If looks like it would be a great one for a .358 Norma as those throats were generally cut pretty generous.it should be a wind bucker.I shoot an RCBS 35-250 SP that is a pretty good one but doesn't have a BC like this bad boy.I hadn't noticed the group buy till today.Maybe after feedback I'll wish i had one.

(PS the NEI 47B samples went out today)

Its made to fill the Lead and throat
If your chamber has any lead at all it should work great
Its not a bore rider

Will look for the samples

HARRYMPOPE

What do you mean by not a bore rider? The nose is roughly bore diameter isn't it? Does the whole bullet taper?The drawing doesn't say what diameter the last band before the nose is.Is it also .354?

SwedeNelson
12-08-2012, 02:08 PM
By the time you get to the bore - through the lead and the throat - the nose is only .311 diameter
You should be able to seat it out longer if need be.

I hope this helps

it seems like it will ride the lands for a good portion of the nose.Thanks for the drawing

SwedeNelson
12-08-2012, 03:07 PM
I stand corrected
I get it in my head for initial fit, not going down the barrel
You are 100% right in that respect.

It should be a great bore rider!
