.357 hollow base bullet mold

[Come On Christmas]

does any one make one? PM a source to foller wire rules.

 

Wanna bump up bullet for a remington conversion cylinder.

 

Or should I jest set up a jig and depth on a drill press?

No need to hide a good vendor's name, not by any forum rules I've seen.

 

Bernie Rowles in Fruita, Colorado may be your man.

He has taken down his on-line bullet design "catalog", but he does some fine work with old mold designs. I have one of his standard base molds for .45 Colt that is very nice.

 

Anyway, he's well known for making .38 Colt hollow base molds. Get in touch with him and see what he can offer you.

 

BUT - why not read this thread over before you go too far with hollow-based bullets. The preferred method for making slugs for .38 Colt in the conversions is a heeled bullet.

You are in luck, Bernie also makes those molds.

 

Good luck, GJ

Hey Joe,

 

I recently posted about a pepper box pistol and where to buy it. It got blocked. I'll cry all night.

 

I oft times play dumb to find out what I want. My research had yielded dscussion, but no real definitive answers.

 

Thanks for your input.

148 grain hollow base wadcutters? You really think those will fit the .38 Colt case well? Well, it is your gun. Might be worth a try.
