Cast/Copper Plated Bullets in .351 diameter.
I am looking for some 180 grain cast round nose, preferably Copper Plated bullets to use in a .351 Winchester Self Loader rifle.

Any help or information is appreciated.


Even the rocks don't last forever.

Good luck. I have been contemplating having a mold made. I have used 200 gr. .348 WIn. bullets with some success, but it takes a bit of fooling around. I have also had good luck making cases from .357 super brass, but you need a lathe for this.

I said .357 Super and I meant .357 Maximum, brain slip. Fairly easy conversion, turn down rim and cut groove, and trim to length. According to the book, the head is .003 under but after the first firing it doesn't seem to be a problem.

Crazyhorse, ever thought about having Lee (or someone else) make you a bullet-sizing die a tad undersized and electroplating them yourself? I have toyed with this idea myself more than once.

Also, that gun shop "Two Wright Arms"...do they mostly just handle Cowboy guns and gear or other stuff too?
