    Try Shooter's World Heavy Pistol. It's very similar to AA#9 but more affordable. A double charge is impossible. Very consistent metering.

    I cast the mp version of the 358429. Solids in the maximum and for hogs in the 357 mag. Small hp pin for deer works perfectly. Large hp pin for 38sp and varmints regardless of how many legs they have.
