Thank you for this sage advice. I will heed your recommendations!

Greetings!
I recently acquired a Lyman 358439 mold, which is supposed to be the hollow point version of the 358429. From what I have read, this mold should throw a bullet weighing about 153-155gr....

@Recycled bullet,

Thanks for the refresher! After handloading for almost 50 years, you sometimes forget some of the basics! Just adding a new bullet and mold to the inventory!

Greetings!

It is my intention to develop a load for this bullet to be fired in a comped Sig P365 (specifically an assembled P365 Spectra Comp), and if it groups well, a Beretta 92x. I will be...

I have a Lee Production Pot that I purchased sometime in the early 2000s. Due to accident injuries, I haven't done any casting for almost 20 years. I am currently returning to casting, but I am...

Greetings!

Today was the first day that I broke out my casting equipment in just shy of 20 years. Between a surplus of cast bullets, an accident that left me disabled, and parental obligations,...

I am in the process of putting together a few thousand PCd bullets for my Glock. I don't have first hand experience; however, for the past few GSSF matches that I've worked, a significant number of...

I asked about differences in POA/POI because with the suppressor height sights that I installed, my G17.5 (using 115gr FMJ) is printing about 4" below the POA at 12 yards. I am hoping that using a...

Thank you!

Out of curiosity, could I expect a 135gr bullet moving about 1000 fps to print above or where a 115gr FMJ at about 1150 fps would print?

Again, thank you for your help!

Greetings!

I have acquired an MP mold that casts a 357-135 FRNBB that will be powder coated. I am hoping to develop a load using WW231. Has anyone had any experience with this bullet/powder...

Greetings!
I have recently purchased an MP gang mold that is casting a 9mm 135gr FRNBB bullet, which will be powder coated. Needless to say, the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook (4th ed) doesn't show...

Greetings! I love an ongoing conversation!

I am looking to develop a cast load for the 357 Sig in a P229. Based on what I've recently read, the Lee 358-125RF sounds like a usable bullet, which...

Greetings!

I have a bullet mold that appears to have been orphaned, and I'm trying to identify a comparable mold for load development.

I have a pre-RCBS OHAUS mold marked 38168K. After RCBS...

I need to clarify, I am NOT considering powder coating bullets that have been quench cooled! At the moment, I am trying to decide if I will quench cool then run through the lubri-sizer, OR air cool...

Greetings!

When it gets a bit warmer and after my hands heal (carpal tunnel surgery), I am looking at doing some serious casting which will include the Lyman 356637 hollow point bullet. This will...

This post introduces a fantastic idea, and a few helpful dimensions!

I don't know if they could, or if I would trust something printed on a 3D printed that would be dispensing gunpowder. These bushings are cylinders 0.498" in diameter that are 0.499" tall with a...

Greetings!

Ever have one of those moments where you want to kick yourself for NOT buying something that you DIDN'T need, just in case you might need it after it's been discontinued?

Now that I...

I realize that this is resurrecting an older thread.

I am looking to put together the following Skeeter load for my 3" 686+, and was wondering if anyone had tried either in a 3" barrel. Most of...

Gentlemen,

I appreciate the referrals; however, they links provided show data for either 357 Sig jacketed bullets and molds for 38/357 magnum.

I appreciate the effort!

Greetings!

Can anyone recommend a mold that has a blunt enough nose that can be powder coated for use in the 357 Sig? Preferably in the 100gr to 135gr weight range.

In addition, can anyone...

Yes, it is a magnum, so it can handle the pressures. Just looking for a standard 38 Special load.

Greetings!

Until I can get back online casting my own bullets, I purchased a box of State Line cast 158gr SWCs.

I am using the RCBS Cast Bullet Manual #1 and the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook (4th...

Thank you for the encouragement and sound advice. I think that the last lube that I used was a soft green lube (SPG?) that I used was for BPCR bullets.

While I plan to try powder coating some...

I have a small problem. I entered the wonderful world of casting in the early 2000s. The last time I had cast and lubrisized any bullets was 2006. In 2007, about the time that I would have started my...
