I went back and checked out the video. Thanks for sharing! I think I will get a batch to propel myself. They ought to fly swiftly being so light.

Lorin,

So far I haven't bought any molds.  I was hoping to get some input before I spent the money on them only to find that they didn't work well.  The ones that I got are the factory Benjamin Pursuits and so far they are pretty disappointing from a measurement standpoint.  I did have chance to do some shooting right after I got my Rogue but I've gotten worse since then and not had a chance to do any more than order the bullets from Matt's.  The initial shooting I did with the Benjamins was not all that great which led me to start miking them to see what size they are.  I'll look at the .358 round ball mold now that I know what your results have been.  I'm still waiting for surgery on my back since my accident last May and it has been rough.  I hope I can get things worked out and have something done soon.  I'll keep an eye on your results as you post them.  I might try to sell the Pursuit rounds or trade them for some other pellets that I can use.  I have over a ton of pure sheet lead to melt down and work withso it would be a shame to waste them if somebody could get some use out of them.  I'll look at Tom's website and see if I can start narrowing down some choices.

I hope that your recovery goes smoothly.

Randall,
You and I are on the same page when it comes to trying find the  best rounds without wasting a whole lot of time and money. Right now I have five different molds. What do plan on hunting with your Rogue? I will be getting me about thirteen hundred dollars worth of deer. So I must have a heavy round that shots accurate. When the weather clears up will shoot another video using all five rounds plus I will shoot from a rest to minimize the effect I have on the impact of the round at 50 and 100 yards . For about 20 to 25 bucks you can get a Lee Mold DC 358-150-1R. If you take your time while casting them using your sheet lead you will have some good bullets  that cost a lot less than those Benjamin Pursuit rounds.  I have herd good reviews about EPP/UG  bullets in .357 and .45 cal. I think thats going to be my next mold . PM me your address and I will drop you some of my bullets to try out.

Lorin,

My main hunting target would be coyote, and feral pigs so I would still need some pretty decent accuracy to put them down cleanly.  I'll send you a pm with the information.

Thanks

Hey Lorin,

I got the care package of bullets to try in my Rogue today.  Thanks for sharing them with me.  I hope to be doing a little better with my back soon and have a chance to try them out.
