I recently picked up an H&G #43 .38 Keith mold. When I load them into .357 mag brass and seat in the crimp groove, they are too long to sit in the cylinder of my GP100. I know the 358429 fits, as I've tried them before. I may need to sell this H&G off to get the Lyman Keith .38 mould. Does this problem sound normal?

For loading into 357's,ya,,the H&G OAL is a common problem.Try some 38 brass loads.Search 38/44 loads.
H&G moulds are easy to sell if need be,too easy if I'm around!:mrgreen:

I think it was made to shoot out of 38 Spl. brass not 357 brass. if its a 4 cavity mould and you want to sell it I would be intrested.:Fire::castmine:
