Thanks, I designed it specifically for the 3AT, LCP, & TCP. Round flat nose for self defense and no feed issues. NOE did a run of these and I see he has a few molds left: NOE TL358-100-RF

It's a good shooting bullet too. I have a 6 cav Lee mold from RD, cast of straight wheel weights they drop at 101gr. Air-cooled at about a 10bhn, sized .358" and tubled with Recluse lube, 2.6gr of Titegroup, shoots great from my TCP.

Thanks for the report 44! Good to hear the bullet is alive and doing well!

I've loaded some 380s for a friend using the little Lee 105gr 38 sized down to 356. It is a SWC. If I look real hard I might be able to find one or 2 that haven't made it to him yet.
