Try Montana Bullets. I use them and they are great. Price is reasonable too.

I bought mine (158-gr LSWCGCs) from forum member nkjnut, Jessie Clark of Tennessee Valley Bullets.

+1 on Montana Bullet Company. Their gas checked 158 grain #358156 bullets are pretty much all I use in my .357's.

+2 for Montana Bullets. Dave makes extremely nice bullets. His 358156 is what I use for my hot 357 Mag loads.

Thanks for all the help. I may have to give them a try. They arent as big a savings off firing bulk remington or even XTP as I thought they would be but I like trying different components so at least now I know where to get them

I recently bought 500 125 grain 38's and there was no lube just some black coating that was slippery as snot. How does this lube hold up to 1000 fps?
