Fine looking ammo...

that's one of my favorite 38 caliber bullets. They "just look right". And usually shoot right as well, as long as one does one's part.
I have been searching for more than 50 years
for that ammo that just shoots absolutely straight no matter what the person holding the gun does or how they do it.
Thought I got close a couple times but then figured out that I was just shooting so much I was doing all the right stuff more or less unconsciously. -sigh-

I cast the bullets using my old SAECO #382 4-cavity mold.
It's listed as a "158 - 160 gr." mold. The #382 is available in 2, 3 or 4 cavity. I see Midway has them for over $260.00 without handles! Durn. I didn't know this one was so valuable!
