Howdy Folks
As the title says, i'm looking for a 180 gr WFN mold for 357 mag. If anyone has one laying around they are looking to part with, please PM with description and price. I don't need anything fancy just something that works as it's supposed to.
Many Thanks

The .357 Magnum......
1935
Major Douglas Wesson, using factory loads, which were a 158 gr. soft lead bullet, traveling 1515 fps, from an 8 3/4" barreled S&W, producing 812 ft. lbs of muzzle energy.
Antelope - 200 yards (2 shots)
Elk - 130 yards (1 shot)
Moose - 100 yards (1 shot)
Grizzly Bear - 135 yards (1 shot).
It kind of makes one wonder, why today, it will bounce off anything bigger than a rabbit

You might post what you consider reasonable as in todays market that might be up there with unicorns/Ed
Edward: By "Reasonable" I mean below what a new one sells for. And naturally condition comes in to play after that, if someone has a 6 cavity that 4 cavities had battery acid spilled in them and they are now 88 caliber, well that would be considered worth less than if all cavities were perfect, etc. etc. etc. I'm not looking for a gift or hoping to find one for $10, nor am I chasing unicorns

Would a 190 grain WFN gas check from LBT work?

I CAN NO LONGER RESPOND TO REQUESTS MADE ON THE SALES THREAD IN A TIMELY MANNER. PM ME ONLY AND STATE YOUR REQUESTS,
I'm still looking Folks, if you have something that might fill the need, please PM.
I don't need a show piece, and I won't be entering it in any beautiful mold contests. As long as it still has at least 2 cavities that cast good boolits, I may be interested. Many thanks
