I am contemplating the purchase of a Taurus Model 85; will normal crimped 358429 fit in the chamber of this model?
I have casted untold 1000's of this boolit and use in Ruger GP-100 and S&W Model 27.
I want a church going gun and have settled on the TM-85.
Thanks

The cylinder is much shorter IIRC. You could likely still use the Keith but will have to crimp above the groove. If a church gun, maybe just some store bought defensive ammo would be more appropriate?

Keith designed it for the .38 spec. If it's any help, they fit in my Colt Cobra with room to spare. This is the d frame Colt.
