The Lyman manual lists loads for bullets cast in Lyman molds. I've pointed out several times that ya just can't go by weight as many bullets have more of a shank and when seated , leave less room in the case than other bullets of the same weight , possibly resulting in a compressed charge. Even Lyman bullets of the same weight , but different design have different data. Medium to fast powders don't respond well to compressed loads.
I'm not seeing a 125gr .357 cast bullet in my Lyman book.
