cannelure problem
« on: March 20, 2006, 09:39:02 AM »
Man, my first time loading 357mag with Win125gr JHP, I notice that the cannelure on most of the 100 in the bag have a bad cannelure on them. After loading some of the good ones,groups were ok. Then I shot the loads with the lopsided cannelure, nothing to write home about! Think I will take the rest back to Cabela's and show them. Will try another brand..

Sounds like typical Winchester components here for the last couple years. I've had it with them, and won't be buying anymore components from Winchester.

If you want the best bang for your buck, try the Remington Bulk bullets. I buy them 2000 at a time from Midway, and after tens of thousands of them, I've seen that they just can't be topped in the 357 magnum.
