I'm thinking that I need to get a mold to feed my Rossi 92 in 357. Problem is I don't know, 1.)how to measure the bore of the little 16" carbine except to find the appropriate size fishing sinker of pure or near pure lead and shove it down the bore. 2.) the shape of bullet that would feed in the Rossi but have the widest meplate that will function. 3.) What weight between 150gr and 180gr that I should choose. I know the weight, besides quantity, has a lot to do with what ratio I have of lead to tin and antimony.
So you can see I need a lot of help. Perhaps someone has one of these rifles and I could find out some of the bullets that work well in their Rossi. I will eventually be adding a D/A revolver and hope that the bullet will shoot well in both. Oh, I do have a very minimal amount if casting under my belt and have enjoyed using aluminum molds. I am currently looking at Accurate Molds of Centerville , Utah for the mold but I'm willing to go somewhere else as well. Thanks to all!
