No 918V, there is a post from someone who knows nothing about cast bullets.
Uh, what?
Maybe I should just go back to reading Elmer Keith, Brian Pearce and John Taffin and leave this convoluted nonsense to the internet "experts".

By the way, Hodgdon lists a 115gr cast roundnose at an OAL of 1.10" with a max charge of 4.8gr of 231.
Like I said in the first post, before the silly arguing, no difference. Just cheaper bullets.
918v, folks like yourself are a lot of the reason why so many jacketed shooters are afraid of cast bullets. Most shooters are fine with .356" commercial cast bullets they can buy at the local emporium or order from Midway or Graf's. No reason to go scaring folks with talk of slugging bores and oversized bullets. One more time.

Ugghhhh Craig I know you want to be like Elmer and everything but dude take a look at a reloading manual once and a while. Lead bullet loading data is generally less than their same weight and shape jacketed counterparts.
