I'm trying to find a mold for a 190gr+ .358" bullet for my Marlin 1894 carbine in .357 mag. I would really prefer something over 200grs, up to 220grs or so.
What's available? I'm a big follower of Lee aluminum molds but sadly they just don't fit the bill on this one without a custom mold. (As a side note I've been debating whether I could justify the money for a .358" 220gr HP Lee custom) I currently have a 158gr HP Lee, is it possible to modify this mold by boring/reaming it out deeper to throw a heavier bullet? I would need a cylindrical reamer in order to preserve the HP.
Lyman has some options I believe, but I really know nothing of which molds exist. Are there any heavy Lyman HP blocks available?
Cheers folks.
