I'm particularly interested in the TL356-124-2R and the 356-125-2R.

What I really want is a 125gr round nose bullet that drops at .358". I have several Lyman and Saeco molds that drop bullets at about .357", and I'd like something a bit larger.

My TL356-124-2R drops wheelweight metal at.3565. You could lap the mould......but why not try the .358-125 RF?

A variation of alloy will give .002" in the mold.

My .356 TC lee mold drops any where between .357 and .358 in the same casting session.

What diameter does the Lee 358-125-RF typically drop at, when using Wheelweights plus 2% Tin?

Has anyone had feeding troubles with this bullet in semiauto pistols?

I am also about to try the 358-105-SWC.
