    WT Try .358/200GC, and Lighter than 190 8mm Trade

    I would like to try some of the RCBS, 200 Gr-G.C. .358, Boolits, in my bolt action 35 Rem.
    Believe it or Not, I have never shot Any!!
    Also want to try some Lighter than 190 gr. 8mm Boolits, no G.C. Necessary. Something like a 32-20 Boolit maybe.
    Can Trade for, 265 grain cast, lubed, and gas checked, .378/38-55 bullets.
    or, 160 grain, 6.5/ .266 FMJ bullets. I know these should be .264, but, they are more like .266. Long Scoundrels at about 1-3/8" with exposed lead at the base, ala military stuff. They have a "lube groove" looking collar toward the base, and seem to have been rolled in LLA at some point. No Idea where they came from... Nor Why I have them!!!
    If we Both like what we "Try" maybe we can do a Trade!!!!!

    Thanks

    Thank You hc18flyer.
    Brewer 12345 is sending me some .358's, to Try them
    8mm are apparently not so Common, in lighter weights...and I do not have checks nor sizer for them.
    I appreciate you looking

    I have some 8mm Loverins both GC and PB style. They are as cast, not sized or lubed yet.
