Ok let's be honest about this. If you only had one bullet mold for 38/357 cal. For revolver or lever gun, for plinking, hunting,etc. What would it be. With gas checks or plain base. ?? I think mine would be the Lyman 358156....

Lee 6 cavity 125 flat round nose. I don’t like that it’s that light but it’s accurate, makes a lot of bullets, and works in the 9mm as well as the others.

Only one bullet mold?  Boy, are you preaching to the wrong choir.  :-)

Doubt it. Not everyone needs several molds for only one caliber. I have 6 different 38 molds. But I only use one. No doubt be getting rid of the others..

My favorite 38/357 mold that I have is a Lee 358-158-RF that was covered to hollowpoint by Erik Ohlen. It casts well and is accurate in all my 38/357 revolvers. If I could add a second mold it would be a 148 grain wadcutter.

My favorite is the keith style 158 gr. But really, I thought it was mandatory that we go thru 6-7 molds per firearm to find the right one, even if the right one was the first one.

A late production Lyman 357446.

 

Just to be different. I have a handful of them with the big front driving band, plus I'd like to avoid gas checks if at all possible.

Mine is the 358156. I powder coat them and don’t use a gas check….. But then I have a very nice 358429 that I would like to send to Eric for the hollow point treatment.
