Picture looks pretty good for a flat meplat bullet for hunting. Anyone have any comments or experience. Want to use it in a 356 Win in a Model 94 and maybe in a 94 Marlin 357 (but will it feed and velocity probable to slow to perform very well)....I see Lee has discontinued it so is a a limited useful design or a dog.....??afish4570:-?:-?:-?:-?

Why don't you look at Ranch Dogs web site, he has a boolit made just for the Marlins.

I got mine in the mail today. I plan to shoot it in my 357 mag and 357 Herrett Contender barrels. I have to wait a couple of weeks to get my GCs and cast some up. It looks like a good hunter with that fat nose.

We shall see. TM

Those numbers are the same as Ranch Dog's , but I don't know why Lee has them on their site ???? I have Ranch Dog's mould and it works absolutely great in my 35 Rem. 336 and also in my 357 MAX Handi-Rifle. I would highly recommend it .............. yep, I just did .........:mrgreen:

Thought the same thing Bob. Want to bet these are some "Factory 2nds" that didn't make the cut at RD's? Lee has sold returned moulds before.

I just got both TLC moulds in today from the Lee surplus page and I do believe that they are some that Ranch Dog might have rejected .

The 44 is casting fine but the 35 is wanting to be cranky , so will clean it again (3rd time) and do a little polishing , otherwise both moulds look fine to me , still got to check the diameter on both .
