Vern,

The traditional target bullet in the .38/.357 is the 148 grain Wadcutter. I like the Lyman 358495 WC and shoot lots of them with light and mid-range loads of powder. For PPC and full power loads, I like the 158 grain Keith-style semi-wadcutter and the same designation weighing 168 grains. I think the latter is Lyman #358429.

I have 4-cavity moulds for the 158 and 168 SWCs and they keep me busy. I run both moulds at once and put one aside when it heats up and run the other mould until it gets hot and then vice versa. Hope this helps.

Adam
