Help with Lead

Been using Chey Cast bullets but recently came across Moulton Lead and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them? seems to be a big difference in price....

I used them for quite a few years... I ordered 125 TC for rifle and 105TC for pistol from them..

both had crimp grooves which I'm partial to..

They stopped production of the 105 TC for some reason..

but.. they make good bullets..

 

I've recently switched over to Deuce Stevens bullets..

He makes a 110 grain TC with crimp groove..

I think Anvil Al also sells his bullets..

I've moved both rifle and pistol over to the same round now.. just different charges ..

 

Rance ;)

Thinkiin' they are both cowboy shooters :wacko: too and supports SASS :)

the only downfall I see right now is that you can't order online. Its either print the form and mail it or call them. I am guessing he usually has this stuff ready to ship out?

I am still pretty new to all of this ..... Does using different grain bullets or loads for the pistol vs rifle make a big difference? I have been shooting 125 gr 38special using trail boss powder out of both of my pistols and rifle, the OAL is 1.44

 

For a short time I had a 1000 105gr 38s and I used them in both as well until I had no more.

He may have stopped making the 105 because it can be a pain.

 

The 110's cast much easier and better. Which to me. Makes for a better bullet anyway.

Yes.

I was casting the 110 also. Best seller by far.

But.

I have stopped production on all bullets at this time.

Went and got a job. :blink::wacko:

SO. At least for now. Production has stopped.

But I am sure Deuce could fix you up.

Some of my reasoning is going on in the shooters mind only... :blink:

 

My wife Lacey Corsette shoots with me and I wanted the lightest recoil I could get for her pistols so I went with the 105's TC

with a low powder charge...

We used the 125 TC in the rifles with a heavier powder charge so they would get there quicker..

Both bullets were built to the same OAL.. we used 1.435..

If we came upon a Texas Star to knock the plates off of... or a pistol knockdown rack ..

We put rifle ammo in the pistols also..

Many many times the 105's wouldn't take the plates off or knock down the knock downs...

So far the 110's TC still loaded with different powder charges that I used prior have worked out well..

and I have to stock just one bullet now..

 

Rance ;)

Thinkin' this is just my oddball reasoning :wacko:

If your OK with your 125 grain bullets go for it.. :)

We just wanted less recoil for the pistols.. :)

Cheycast is actually cheaper if you spend over 100 bucks by a couple of dollars (free freight over 100). of course that would only work if you ordered

 

at least 1500 at a time. Just sayn.
