anyone cast 38-55 in .379 @ .380 and could spare a few to see if my 38-55 will chamber the both diameter before I purchase some from a caster.I did slug the bore at .379
will be glad to refund you shipping charges:coffee:

Lone Wolf, I use the Lee 250 gr plain base 375 bullet, it casts around .382 and I size these to .379. These work great for my H&R Target barrel and my T/C 375 Win carbine. I'd be happy to send you a few for the postage. PM me if interested.

I cast for my .38-55 with an old plain-base 265 gr. Ohaus mold that drops .380-381 from 25-1 alloy and I load these "as-cast" in my Uberti High-Wall. I could run a few through a .379 sizer if you'd like to give 'em try, though.
