Anybody have any experience with the lee 140swc in .358?looks like the 105,with an extra band,,,thought i might try one,in the 38 super.

I really like mine.
However , I don't use it in a Super.
I shoot mine in 38 Special and 357 Mag.

I may have recomended it but I recomend you seek out a Saeco 383 mold.

Its a 140g as cast in the pics. Its nose is very conducive to smooth reliable feeding.

LEEs 140 grain .357 bullet was an early favorite for me. I'd cast them out of straight linotype and they'd end up a lot lighter than I expected, around 125 gr. I used them with full power loads in my Ruger 357s and the shot as flat as a laser. I would expect it to do well in a Super.
