looking for local .357 bullets

hariph creek · Apr 8, 2011

I'm looking for .358 diameter, 180-200 grain, WNFP, hard cast bullets for my .357mag.
Does any body know if, or where, I can find these in the greater Portland metro area?

EDIT: Actual bullets, not cartridges.

I use T&B bullets out of Cottage Grove. I shoot the 180's out of my maximum and they are great. Good Product from good people.

I'd recommend Badman as well but they only make up to a 158 gr in that caliber. Can't get much more local that they are as long as you're in the Lebanon area.

And they're pretty nice folks!

Give shooters' service center a try,seems like I bought some there once.

Want to try something neat, I've loaded these for my 38+357. It's a 158gr hollow base wadcutter,load them at a low charge(typical wadcutter, lead bullet load) I think it was 4.0 of Bullseye, I don't remeber without looking. But load them with the projectiles reversed, they are like a "Hydro Shock" on steroids, with the target loading and light on the barrel lead bullets they pack allot of punch!! Great in a carry gun like a Detective Special or smoething thats not a +P gun and that you don't want allot of recoil. Also a big Plus is that they don't richoet off "steel's", knock them down Hard and shoot just as good as any target load!! Try them out on a gallon milk jug full of water, I think you'll say WOW and there cheap by the 500 count if you shoot alot.

Thanks, Throckmorton. I'll give Shooters Service Center a call.
I meant to ask you before, why is the name Throckmorton so familiar? Where do I know that from? I'm thinking literature?

I want to get some 185gr WNFPGC through Bear Tooth Bullets. But, I would prefer to find something comperable local.
Oregon Trail's laser casts are around, but they are a bit brittle.
Cast Performance is out in Ranier, their 187gr WNFPGC looks pretty good. Maybe I need to find an excuse to head that way soon?
Let's see shipping is around $15. VS. 40-50 miles each way, $4.33/gal for diesel, 24mpg...

Or you can order from Badmanbullets.com and get free shipping.... They're outside of Albany in Oregon so it will take less than 2 days for you to get the package.

I think he's looking for an excuse to go for a road trip!! Give the man a break,he might just see SUMTHING there.

ripcity · Apr 15, 2011

the prices at badman bullets are really good. Are they accurate?

hariph creek · Apr 18, 2011

BadMan bullets look good and have good prices. But, not hard or heavy enough.

I'll check out T&B.

Actually a road trip would not be my wish, unless it's less than shipping.

180-200gr, hard cast, WNFP, LOCAL...
