If you weigh them though they are really 130grns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon A Bovine SASS 27688 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Using some 105's, 110's, and 125's. When the 105's are gone there won't be any more. Been casting Lee 125 rnfp to use and will stick with that weight when buying from a supplier. I guess I'm not seeing a difference in recoil enough to be keeping both on hand.

Three Gun Cole Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I've been using the poly coated 105's for 5+ years loaded @ 900-1000 FPS for rifle and @ 700 in Short colt brass for revolver. They work very well, spotters can tell when you hit a target at that speed. I use 125 Fireball bullets for knockdown targets moving slightly faster than the poly 105's The 105's are cheaper than the heavier bullets. 3GC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El CupAJoe Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I got lucky with my Rossi, it seems fine with my Lee 125 RF, and Lee 158 2R in both magnum and special length. Plan to try the Lee 200 RF GC for hunting this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWC coated bullets to load some Skeeter Skelton type loads for my Ruger flat top 44 special. I decided to try loading some hotter 44 mag loads for the Marlin. I wasn't sure how they'd cycle but they ran very smoothly through the Marlin. I also have a .44 Marlin and, yes, the 240 SWC runs well though it.
