I borrowed a Mold from a friend. I cast some to test yesterday.
This is only the second MiHec Mold I have used and this one is a dandy! Cast and dropped bullets quick and easy. Simply warmed on top of the pot as usual & culls.

I decided to GC these first, then PC.

Lastly I PC’d and sized them. 1/3 Lime Green and 2/3 Purple mix.

I just got that mould myself, it is barely broken in. Mine will be used in a 35 whelen that is under construction. Those bullets look really nice!

My two favorites for my bigger 35’s are a NOE 360-232 and this Accurate 36-270c

Hopefully this MP 220-359 will be a third fav.

The 359-220 was specifically designed for the Marlin 336 in .35 Remington, to be the heaviest possible bullet to feed and fit in the case neck. That's also why the crimp groove is where it is and the nose is shaped the way it is.
