Well, thanks to Al's special's over the 4th of July, I ended up with two more molds, one on order, one received, been cast and sized and lubed, and some loaded. Got the 3 cav 360 Keith 172gr. (My favorite 357 bullet). The nose is just a scose different than the original, at least from my lyman mold, but I like it. It feeds well thru my 94 Win, and my Blackhawk. It is to long for my colt unless I crimp it way forward, and that looks
sort of lousy to me. If it was good enough for Elmer, it is sure good enough for me.
The one on the way in is the 311284 PB, 2 Cav, to play with in my milsurps in the 1200 or so range. Have hopes it will drop large for my 303's and Mosins. Have always loved that bullet, and years back had Buckshot HP a single cav mold for me. Which reminds me: I think I ought to reserve a day or two, one of these days just to cast HP bullets. Have 7-8 that have probably not been cast in a number of years and are neglected. Think one of these days, will have to break down and put the money out for a HP multi cav mold for the one 172 grain Keith.
I need to be weaned off buying molds. Have far to many---naw, but, I don't have time to cast and shoot for all I have. There are worse addictions I guess. Will try to put my self on a one year mold buying probation.
