How well does the Lee 356-124-2R boolit do?

Well, in my Phantom, pretty darned good! That's a 5 round group, BTW.



That was the best, but by a slim margin, ALL the test targets looked that good! I test pistol loads at 10 yards standing, have for years. This one says, "move the target back..." Next time I go out, (in a day or so,because I am on vacation, yippee!), I am gonna do exactly that!

Does real good in my 1911 9mm. Also good in 38 Super.

I guess the Phantom has a different setup than my 75BD. Any 356 boolits I tried went in sideways, and it took a 358 to go in straight.

BTW I finally got my 7.62x39 casting/reloading stuff in the mail. I'll post later how they did in my CZ.

Actually, I have been using the same boolit in ALL my CZ pistols, and they have always worked well, no keyholing at all. Sounds like your 75B barrel is a bit wide. Not that that is a bad thing, as you only need one sizer to shoot 9mm or 38! I have to use the 356 for 9mm, and the 358 for 38 special, as the mold drops at .360.
I just posted that tyarget because I haven't had a load work this well before, and the Phantom is a crazy accurate pistola - next range trip we're testing this load at longer range.
