I’m thinking about this one for a great plinker/small game in my 358 Win.

Not the same bullet as yours, but the mindset was the same.

I had loaded some plain based, SAECO , # 353 pistol bullets with 10.5 grains of Russian Unique with a CCI 34 primer in 358 Win. cases.

I was shooting at 50 yards, I fired a 5 shot group with this load and could barely believe my eyes, fired another 5 shot group and still another. Group after group like this.
People tell you that a plain based bullet won't shoot well out of a rifle.....

No experience with that MP 135. I have a RanchDog 135 from Accurate I am fond of.

I have also looked for a Saeco 353 for some time after being sent some years ago. Its a nice bullet!!

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
It's just me, but I like a little flatter nose for small game. Of course, if you smack a bunny with a 35 cal bullet, the job is pretty well done and over, so ignore my thoughts!

Betcha it'll work great.

Thank you for the replies. I believe you saved me some cash. I forgot about my MP penta point mold as I can make FP bullets with it. I will use the cash for gas maybe;>)
Thanks

I'm looking at using my lee 125gr rnfp in the 35 rem for a similar purpose... 38/35 rem/9mm? Have a bunch cast... just need to load
