I have a 1950's Marlin 336A in 35 Remington with Ballard rifling. I'm in the market for a bullet mould.
I'm considering the RCBS 35-200 GC, the SAECO #356 (35 grain 200 grain GC), and the Ranch Dog 35-190 GC.
Does anyone have any cast diameters for these moulds? I'd like a wheelweight bullet to be a fat .359" (.360" would be nice).
I seem to remember reading somewhere that RCBS can recut a mould to a slightly bigger size. Am I dreaming, or is this true? It would be great if that service was available. It would make the RCBS 35-200 an interesting option. I've been calling RCBS customer service for the past several days, and just get a busy signal (trying to ask them if this service is available).
Comments welcome from anyone who has used these moulds in a 35 Remington Marlin (particularly in a Ballard-rifled version).
Thanks.
