OK, so a friend of mine purchased some reloading supplies from an old guy on {elsewhere} who was getting out of the hobby. The supplies then sat in my friend's basement for about a year before he realized he didn't have time for them and gave them to me.
Among the supplies was a large ziplock bag containing 440 of the following bullets:
Description: SJHP
Diameter: .357
Length: .665
Weight: 158 grains
The bag was unmarked so I have no idea who the manufacture is. I'd like to reload them, but I'd like to know what they are first.
Can any of your veteran reloaders out there identify these? Thanks in advance!
P.S. Sorry for the poor pic quality.
Great forum you all have here, look forward to learnin' more!

I have several boxes of those, they are Remington Hollow Points. Maybe other companies made them for Remington, but mine are Remington.
They do shoot well for what they were intented to do.

Good find. That's a classic 357 self defense bullet if I'm not mistaken. Might be more advanced things out there now, but those will get the job done.

i cant quite tell from the foto,the remington had scallops on the mouth of the jacket and the win was flat round the jacket and had marks on the jacket not scallops like the r-p's btw winchester bills their's as notched r-p has 6 petal type scallops and the win 6 "notches"
