I'm pumped! Received two more molds from Lee that I designed for my leverguns. They both have the Micro-Bands for tumble lubing like my TLC432-285-RF.

On the left is the TLC359-180-RF for my Marlin's chambered in 35 Remington and 356 Winchester. On the right is the TLC379-210-RF for my Marlin chambered in 375 Winchester. After my work with the TLC432-285-RF for my 444s and 44 Mag, I liked the Micro-Band design so I thought I get them set up for all my Marlins.

The TLC359 is a 180-grain bullet with a bore rider nose so that it can chamber in the short throat of the Marlins. It also is designed with the short neck of the Remington case in mind.

The TLC379 is a 210-grain bullet.

All my specs for the mold were hit by Lee and I will post some shooting and hunting results down the road....

Nice looking boolits. That 358 looks similar in shape to the 358-200 we did a few years back, only with the TL grooves. Let us know how it works out. I like the TL idea. I wish Lee made their 32 cal 90TL mould in a 6 banger.
