I am interested in duplicating this load for curiosities sake, and was wondering if anyone here has any experience with it? I am particularly curious if anyone here knows what bullet mould Remington used for their version of this cartridge? I've read that Winchester used the Lyman #358430...

I was wondering if anyone here has ever had this problem with a revolver? My Smith and Wesson model 638 will cycle in double action, but something is preventing the hammer from being raised with my thumb. It will only move back perhaps a quarter of an inch. I also found that if the...
