Ruger 357 Max bullet mould?

[steve]

I'm looking to buy a new bullet mould for my 7.5" barrel 357 Max I picked up a while back. I bought it with the intent of building another 500 Max, but right now I'm having too much fun shooting it as it. I've been using my RCBS 38-162-SWC-GC, but it's only a 2 cav and a bit lighter than I'd like. I like a GC'ed 4+ cavity around 180-200+ gr with as long a nose as possible. I will be doing mostly long range "plinking" using AA1680.
What are you guy's using? And what would you guy's recommend? I'm still somewhat new to the 357 Max, but I'm loving it!

Edited to add the mandatory picture. Yes I know the plastic grips have to go...I've already talked to one of our resident grip makers here. Zane aka lscg, As soon as I find the right piece of walnut, he'll be making new grips for it.

Maybe this one on castboolits will work.

I run a 4 cavity NEI mold #153 gascheck version. with straight wheelweights and check seated and lubed it runs 193grains. Its my go to slug for both Magnum and Maximum! Seats deep enough that can run it in my old M27& m28s also. basically a case full of H4227 in either case length is crazy accurate. My loads push it about 1200fps in Magnums and 1600+fps in the Max.

No disrespect meant.........I stopped buying NEI when Walt died

I hated Walt's passing as did many others but have had ZERO problems with Joel & Patty as they continue the business. have purchased 8-10 molds since walt died and have had nothing but the same great results i got from NEI molds in past

Good to know things are going well at NEI.............I had a couple of "minor" problems during the "transition", but that was years ago.

Zeus gave me a mold to go with the 357 Max that 2 Dawgs gave me. I think it makes a 180GC bullet.

I want it!

[steve]

You can have it bushog. I got my confirmation from NOE that my mould had already shipped.......First thing this AM my ass was at the post office sending those boys a MO
