I have never used it but have some on the way to try with 40 S&W. I have seen a number of favorable reviews for it.
In doing some cleaning out I found an unopened pound of each of 231, Bullseye and Red Dot powders I purchased in the 80's. I also have a Speer 1988 Reloading Manual. In comparing some data from the...
If that is a 6", I have the same gun I bought new in about 1990. Too bad I didn't invest my 401k money in a boatload of these instead of mutual funds!

I just purchased an older Interarms Rossi .38/.357, 20" model 92 SRC from a member here just a few days ago. It is a very nice gun but I have not had a chance to shoot it yet.

Thanks for this info! I'll have to keep that in mind as I try different loads.

I just purchased the Rossi .38/.357, 20" model 92 SRC that Texas by God was speaking of in the post above. It is a very nice gun! Very nice people too, thanks Thomas!

Thanks to everyone for all this great information!
I'm on the group buy list for the MiHec Aluminum 8 Cavity 358429 Keith SWC. I'm hoping this will pair well with whichever of these I end up with.

I use Berryman B-12 Chemtool in my gas tank as a fuel injector cleaner about every other month. I buy it in the 15 oz. cans (non-aerosol) and I always have a few empty cans on hand because they are...

I went ahead and purchased the HP-38 yesterday, so I am going to still be on the lookout for something better for 357 Mag loads. I talked to a guy that worked there and he said two weeks ago they...

Thanks for all the info. I am about to go do my shopping and see what they have. After reading all this, it dawned on me that this is a similar response that you would get if you asked a bunch of...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Haha, amazing huh? It is hit and miss as to what they will have, that is why I wanted to get several ideas. I guess after thinking about this a little more, I should have the 38 Special covered with...

I am going to be in Cabela's tomorrow and was going to pick up some powder. I am reloading 38 Special and 357 Magnum and have ordered the Lee 358-140-SWC & C358-158 SWC molds. What powders are good...

I found a box of these I forgot I had that I bought years ago at a gun show. Is it a standard design from a commercially available mold? It is sized to .358 weighs 153 gr and is .672 OAL.
