Hello,

Just curious as the selection of the 375 molds are somewhat limited, if anyone has ever seen or had made a hollow point mold for say a 250-300 grain boolit for either the 38-55 or 375 winchester? If so, I think I'd be interested in getting one. Thanks!

I've made several in that range for the .38-55 and .375 H & H. They work really well.

My favorite is a Lyman 375296 followed by a Lyman 375449 and then a Saeco 373. Works great for either caliber and I've shot them all in a .375 Win as well./beagle

45coltnut- NOE has a 379-275GR FN with HP pins, as a HP will drop about 260 GR depending on your alloy.

Thanks AKbushman49.

Out of curiosity, have you tried it before? I see it states the size is a .378". So, I wonder if would drop on the large size of .380"?

Maybe if you used linotype, it might. I use WW's + 2% tin and a bit of copper and it goes .379"
