Glad I gave these a try! Was going to stick with the more commercial ones I was using just cause I had a proven formula. Using the same charge, at ~1200fps, 4.5″ max spread of 10 shots, with most staying within 3″, at 25yds works for my plinking purposes. Every bit as good or better than what I was using, at a much better price!

Trying these for target loads in my .357. I’m going to experiment with different loads of HP-38 to adjust the point of impact. Flys nice and leaves a clean hole.

Indeed a true replica of H&G # 51 bevel base, as confirmed by a 40 + yr old H&G catalog. Great in 357 Magnum and makes a fine all round bullet in your 38 Special. Stateline’s SWC is better in my opinion than the typical hard cast SWCs out there.
Service is great – got my order in two days!

What a awsome cast bullet. Shoots unbelievable out of my 357. Thanks Jim for casting these shooters.
