Lee mold 358-142-2R load data?

[GoodOlBoy]

Anybody know of a place that has load data for a old lee 358-142-2R? I can't find data for this anywhere...

Thanks

Probably should have mentioned looking for 38 Spec, 38 Spec +p and 357 mag data

Thanks

Assuming you are loading for a 38 special/357 mag you can use data for a 145-150 grain cast bullet with no issues. Performance should be close.

There is tons of data for a cast 158 gr.
Substituting a lighter bullet ( by 13 grs. ) will only develop slightly LESS pressure.

Assuming you dont have access to a few printed manuals, the hodgdon web page has a great amount of data on it. Albeit with only Winchester, IMR, and Hodgdon powders. They have alot of cast bullet loads listed as well.

Alright I will keep loading using heavier projectile data, just wasn't sure if it was a wise idea or not. I do have several load manuals, and have visited the hodgdon page, but haven't found specifically a 142gr projectile load data for 38s or 357s.

Thanks guys.

You most likely won't find anything for a 142 gr.
Go ahead and use the data for a 158 gr. You'll be safe.
