??? Was in the batch of estate sale stuff I bought years back. Never cast with it. Any clue on how to tell w/o casting with it?

Here is a photo of my 160 gr. version.

I have the 148gr... and it should have an S after the 358432

Only markings are Ideal/358 432/927 (assume cherry #?).

If I look at the bands in relation to each other, it would appear it matches Ben's 160 version - the top band is same as bottom, plus another "band layer."

If I hadda guess, I would guess it is a 160-162 version.

Measure the bullet length, if it's near the same as Ben's it's the 160 gr. If it's shorter it's the 148 gr.

Yes, the 160 gr. 432 is a real shooter.

OK. Pulling the 358432 from sale, for two reasons. Decided I will play with it, AND, more importantly, as I was checking it, found that the sprue plate screw is def NOT correct. It will not screw in far enough.

Also - fwiw - .640 deep, so has to be the 160.
