Post by milton »

Anyone here tried the Zero 130 gr FMJ bullet in their .357 Rossi lever gun? Just curious

Is it a true FMJ or plated ? I tried some plated in my 41 Henry, the plating did not survive full house loads and fouled something fierce.

This is a real FMJ ,at least in comparison to a HP.I am not sure how thick the jacket is but it is not plated.

Thank you! What powder are you using with the 158 gr. bullets and what sort of accuracy are you getting?

Thank you very much! I do understand enjoying shooting reactive targets,I like to shoot at steel plates at 100 yds,that is as long as the range allows.
I have used 2400 and 296 and if I can find some I will try the Lil'Gun.
