Thank you. It's an easy bullet to cast.

That is my favorite bullet for heavy 38 spl loads.

I think I loaded everything that just cast for me with a big dose if Unique. It works will in my +P rated 38s and 357s

I've used it a lot with 5.5 grains of Unique or 231 in magnum cases to shoot silhouettes. The bullet also worked great with 15 grains of H-110 or 13 grains of 2400 in the same case.

That is my favorite bullet for heavy 38 spl loads.

Not only for the heavy hitters; that bullet ahead of 2.3 grains of Unique makes a dandy load in the little pipsqueak 38 S&W in a solid frame gun (no breaktops). Gets 725fps in my little 2" S&W Terrier. Not a planet wrecker but I sure wouldn't jump out in front of one.

I've got a mold from Arsenal Molds for that bullet, I use it in .38 and .357 Magnum. 3.5grs of Bullseye in .38 and 13grs of 2400 for the .357. Hard to see a need for anything else.

You have to do another video of that star working it is so impressive to us that use a Lyman 450. All my Star dies were with Frank Himshoot when he took ill he was looking for a way to make a bunch of blanks so you could open them up to what specs you needed. When he passed they vanished with the front end of my custom super 480 Redhawk he built me a new front end with a great sight and shaped like a snubby Smith. Miss Frank dearly.

Video is up

sporting goods store back in 82. Shot them in a Model 28. I felt like putting on a big montana cowboy hat and lighting up a Roi-Tan. Or did elmer smoke King Edwards?

El Dorado Suprene maybe.

I see where Harless Dawson has the 358429

by Bob Hatfield @, Wednesday, July 31, 2019, 17:26 (1728 days ago) @ Creeker

At Flat Top Arms a few days ago. I believe he said they were 11 BHN. Just right for a heavy 38 special load? Will the 358429 fit in a New Model BlackHawk in 357 cases?

Yes they will fit seated to the crimp groove....nt
