Anyone loading Cast in 357 Sig?

Would like to know if anyone is loading cast in 357 Sig.

What Mould are you using?

I use a couple of molds but the NOE 358-135-RF is the only mold that throws a bullet that is big enough in dia to work correctly. You will have to use a 38-357 expander or the case will shave lead off of the bullet when seating the bullet sized to .357. Use a good taper crimp and play with everything. I have found that different barrels tend to have a lot of chamber differences that can cause some angry moments. My load for most everything is the NOE bullet sized to .357 over 8.5 grains of AA-5 with an OAL of 1.130. GOOD LUCK

I use this mold in a g31. Could not get it to function in a g33. Works great in the 31.
