I purchase some pistol cast bullets .358 recently from a local vendor. I have reloaded app. 2-3 hundred with no problems and firing with no problems. I have noticed during the bullet seating some of the bullets will leave a lead shaving/sliver on one side of the case mouth. It is easily removed with my fingernail. I just purchase a Speer #14 manual which states that the expander for lead bullets should .001 under size & for jacketed bullets should be .002 - .003 undersize. My expander measures .355. I have loaded jacketed & cast bullets with the same dies and all seems to work. The manual recommended having different size expander for different bullets. Is it customary to keep both sizes of expanders?
My daughter came from Missouri, my son and grand son, my wife and I had a nice dinner of grilled "porter house" pork chops, corn on the cobb, my son, G'son and I share 10/5. G'son is 4 minutes early though @ 10/4.
Pooh I hope you find to right house .
