Use to shoot 540gr Paul Jones Creedmore bullets with 68 grains of swiss 2FG. But had to pull that bullet out to the second grease groove to do it.
Al, who do you and forty get your bullets from, the Navy? Has to be a torpedo. :lol:

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Those are 45-100 Grunt. 87grs of 1FG and thats the 540 grain Paul Jones Creedmore bullet. cast by yours truly when I was still casting bullets.

RnG yes sir the pugnose MC bullets are great for 357 thanks to Rifletom. Probably will be my primary load for 357.

RT turned me onto MB, love the 405 grn Buffalo, the .45 Cowboy #1, and the 180 grn .357 Strikers. I have not tried the pugnose yet. Wanted to make a sample order of 100 bullets, but they are not doing the sample packs right now.

I got the 500's from Matt's Bullets and had about 20 left. Decided to try them with Black MZ powder.
Might get down to the range in a few days to try them out.

I cannot believe I'm out of empty .357 and . 45 Colt cases to load! Know what that means? Head to the desert or the range and empty some of those cases. Preferably the desert. Besides, I have a few .45 Colt loaded with BE -86 to try out. Never know!
