In the Lee line up, which of their molds would make the best CowBoy Bullets?

Thanks,

Jerry

I have and shoot the .45 and .44 RNFP molds, they shoot well, and are easy to cast with. They also look more traditional than SWC designs. I suspect the .38 RNFP, in either weight would work for .38/.357s.

Charlie,

I just ordered the following Lee molds:

452-255-RF

358-158-RF

429-200-RF

I am sure these should fit the bill, but I am open to suggestions.

Jerry
