So I ordered batch of Montana bullet works wide flat nose gas checked 180g bullets for my 357 mag sized to .359 (.358 will slide through the cylinder with light finger pressure). BHN listed s 22. You can find them here https://www.montanabulletworks.com/product/357-noe-180gr-wfn-gc/
They came exceptionally well packaged. a small USPS flat rate box filled tightly with paper with the box of bullets inside. Upon open the box the bullets were all stood up on their bases with scraps of cardboard to keep them from moving around.
Upon looking at some they all look like good clean well cast bullets, but there was a bit more excess lube than I expected on the ogive of the bullets.
My caliper batteries died on me, I will get some measurements when I get chance to replace the batteries.
I weighed all of the 100, they were all heavy and I am not sure, regarding cast bullets if the weight distribution is acceptable. It is an Average of 187.16, ES of 2.4g,
