.359 Ranch dog 190 gr Rf sizing question

[texvet45]

Howdy;

I just finished ordering a .359 RF 190 gr mould and sizer from Ranch Dog, and I want to make sure that .359 sizer is appropriate for my .357 revolver and Marlin 1894C. I know that most cast bullets are sized .358 for that cartridge.
I have a .35 Rem, but I have not started reloading for it yet.

The .359 is probably fine for the 1894C but check the cylinders on the revolver, I have to size them .357 for my Smith 686. I've been shooting my soft without a gascheck and a mild load of Unique in my Smith and they shoot great.

I just started shooting the 190gr Ranch Dog bullets in a 357 max contender and a 35 Rem Marlin. I'm crimping the gas check on in a .358 lyman sizer, but I leave the body of the bullet unsized. I just tumble lube the bullet. I havent done a lot of shooting with them yet, but I'm very encouraged with what I have done so far.
