I've got a few thousand cast bullets from the estate I'm liquidating.  Been too busy with sorting the other stuff out, haven't looked at them yet.  I do know there's several hundred pounds, in 500 or 1000 piece boxes.  There's some smaller batches that he had reloaded from also.  What weight/style are you looking for?

I've been using a 200 grain .360" flat nosed bullet cast from an RCBS mould. Recipient of them is a pre-war Enfield British revolver chambered in .38/200 (.38 S&W). A bit of overkill as they're gas checked bullets and only driven at 600fps or so, but what the heck why not? PM me and I'll send you a care package to try them out.

Moyers is out of business. I liked his .408 bullets for my 40-65. He was trying to sell the business last time I talked to him. Dale.

Around Dodge City and the territories out west, there's only one way to deal with the killers and the spoilers, and that's with a U.S. Marshall and the smell of...Gunsmoke.

All well and good except it's difficult to come up with a load with light bullets that'll shoot to the sights on an old .38 S&W revolver.
