I'm new to the forum, hoping this is the place to post...
I purchased a box of reloading supplies from an old lady at a garage sale and here's a list of what's inside: 2 lbs of Red Dot (unopened, new label so it seems relatively new), 1 lb of 2400 (unopened but an older container stating "rifle powder", 2000 qty Bab-Co hard cast 125 gr /.357 dia / semi-wadcutter (like a flat nosed cone, has a small crimping groove), and about 500 winchester small pistol primers. I've never loaded a hard cast lead bullet and was kinda shocked to find almost no load data for a 125 gr lead bullet in 357 mag. I have found a couple of low power loads, but nothing in the full power realm. What's the reason, is it just not popular or is there a safety / leading issue I should be concerned with? The gun I plan to use them in is a S&W 686 4" six shot. Also, any load info would be greatly helpful, especially with the current shortage of components I'd like to use these bullets and powders together, hopefully at full or near full 357 mag power.
PS...I'd share how much I paid for the box but I don't want to be hated for eternity. lol
