I cast for every handgun I reload for, with the exception of the .380. I also quench my bullets in a similar manner.
9mm & .38 Super: LEE 111 grn RN and LEE 120 grain TC
.38 special: LEE 150 grain SWC
.357 magnum : LEE 158 grain SWC GC (casts out to 162 grains with the alloy I'm using)
.44 magnum: LEE 240 grain SWC GC (casts out to 242 to 250 grains, depending on alloy).
I usually add a little tin and a little antimony to the mix.
I shoot a lot of lead handgun bullets, but I don't like shooting them in the indoor ranges I usually shoot at.....too much lead dust, and the ventilation system doesn't seem to be the best. Prefer to use them outdoors where ever possible.
