Cbashooter, the Ideal 375166 is my go to bullet in a 38-55. In a 1:18 barrel it calculates to 18.7.  I have MOA targets at 100–200 and 300 yds.  One day at Ridgway Rifle Range, I shot it from 500 meters back to 200 meters with BP … 50 consecutive rounds with no patching or blow tubing and the steel silloutes kept falling down with minor vernier setting adjustments 
Accurate Molds has cloned the bullet in Toms inventory


I also shot the 375166 today.it casts .382  in 20-1 and I push sized them to .376 after lubing them.they didn't do well.The oddball 375167 RN has been a design that's been my favorite for a few years.it does well breech seated in my model 44 and in a 375H&H with light unique loads
