.357" 148gr Wadcutter bullets

I will be after some of these when my FAC gets here (hopefully in 6 weeks!). Where is a good place to get them from, and what sort of cost are we talking? It will be for an Armscor muzzle loading revolver.

I will eventually cast my own, but initially I want to buy in a load of them.

Get them from Dodgyrog right here on FBUK.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

When I tried wadcutters they were very accurate in the Armscor but not sure if the forcing-cone is profiled for full wadcutters. Might be best to use a round-nose if you're just plinking. Try a few different bullets before you 'buy in a load of them'.
