I'm looking for a 350 grain bullet mold for my 45 70

If it must be 350 gr then maybe this one?

Thanks. Looks good. I'll check it out. For my Henry steel framed case color hardened 22 inch barrel in 45 70.

I would prefer a 405 gr myself but that will still do well.
Try 24 gr of 2400 and see what it does with that 350 gr bullet. May need to add another 1-2 gr of powder but I bet 24 gr of 2400 does very well.

Thank you for your response. I'm having trouble locating a bullet mold for my Henry 45 70 in 350 grain

If you are looking for something inexpensive, the Lee 340gr is pretty good.

The SAECO 17 looks really good to me, but it carries the SAECO pricing, too.

Lyman 457124 is about 380g

One of my Favorite 45/70's is the 350 Ranch Dog bullet.

I've always thought the 300 grain bullet in the 458 or 45-70 was a good plinker and would work for most small to medium game. For plinking throwing 300 grains at beer cans seems wasteful, but if you got the lead and a sand back stop, why not. No I figured 300 was a bit light, and was leaning towards 350 myself. If stuff with teeth and claws are in the works, move up to minimum of 400 preferably 450 to 500.
I'm working with the LEE 500 grain Spitzer plain base, powder coated and soft, about 12 BHN. With WW and a little tin it weighs 484 grains. Working up 1600 in my 458x2, at about 1425 fps with out any trouble. One inch at 50 yards so far, clean barrel. Going to load up some more this weekend and try bumping 1600. I'm thinking that's going to be about all The this plain base and I will want in a 7 & 1/2 pound rifle.

If the mold is the LEE 340, I believe you'll like it a lot. I've got it and it shoots very well out of my GG. No pics or group size measurements, but I'm pleased with it.
