CANPRO 38/357 FCPT Bullet.

[NB Rifles]

Has anyone tried these in the .38 special and the .357 Mag? If so how did they work for you?
I've had good results with their 9mm Bullets. Any input would be appreciated.
Should read CAMPRO.

I loaded 158gr of these Campro FMJ jacket and worked great. Used on my GP100 6". I also use Campro's .45 ACP RN 230gr with excellent results.

I usually shoot my own cast bullets loaded light, but when I feel like shooting 357 magnums, I use Campro, . Very good bullets at a cheap price.

I use them for .357 and they work great

Thanks! to all that replied. LGS has them in boxes of 1000 I'll give them a try. I can't buy cast any cheaper in this next of the woods.
Are you guys putting a light crimp on them?

 

[Chas59]

Not sure how light my crimp is, probably more of a light to medium crimp, but I realize I don't want to impact the bullet, while ensuring the other magnums in the cylinder hold together.

I use the the campro plated bullits in .357 and .45LC and use a crimp on both, since I had one setback in my .45 LC. How much are you paying for a 1000?

 

[roadcarver]

I just put a light crimp. I usually feel the lip of the brass to the bullet for uniformity.

I have used them with max charges of H-110. Nice big boom and good accuracy.

I've used 158s in 38sp and 357mag. Both in a S&W 686 4.2" and a Rossi M92 20" lever.
I've used H110, VV N110 in 357 and IMR 4756 for the 38sp.

Puts holes in paper. I put what I would consider a medium crimp on them due to the lever action.
Berrys 158gr work well too, I believe it has a thinner jacket but stands up in the rifle with the 357 mag load. I don't do absolute max loads though.

They work great!! I use H110 with them, med crimp.

I've been paying about 100.00 before HST for the 124gr 9mm. I think the .357 are 20.00 more per 1000
I will be purchasing a box of the 158 .357 next week. Thanks again for all the input.
