Anybody like the Lee 358-125-RF in their .357 carbine?

Lately I've been shooting alot of the Lee 358-125-RF in my Marlin 1894 with Micro Groove. My current supply is sized to .358 and lubed with 50-50, I'll probably be trying .359 with Tac-X soon though. They are pretty accurate with .38 +P loads of SR4756, I'm planning to ease them into .357 territory to see how they do. Anybody else like this boolit in their carbine? Any pet loads? Since a .32-20 is way out my price range this is a nice substitute!

The most popular .38 caliber bullet in SASS shooting is the 125 gr. RNFP, usually cast in Magma molds, so I assume your bullet is similar. My wife and I have probably shot about 20,000 of them through our Marlins in SASS matches, practices and demonstrations, so yes, we've put a few downrange. The little Marlin rifles like them, a lot.

Hope this helps.

I use it in my 9mm, 38, 357mag and 357 max. It work great in all of them.

Shoots real good in both my Rossi's. Carbine is best with 5.3/231 and octagon likes 4.5 Bullseye slightly better. Same velocity and powder bushing in my press 1220 FPS. Below is a 100 yd 10 shot group from the carbine.

Sounds good. Planning to try some with Green Dot this weekend.
