Hornady 38 Cal .358 158gr LRN Cowboy Lead Bullets 300
The Hornady 38 Cal .358 158gr Lead Round Nose (LRN) is a reloading component bullet designed for .38 Special and .357 Magnum handgun cartridges.
Cold-swaged from lead for total uniformity and balance, each bullet is pre-lubricated and ready to seat straight from the box. Hornady builds these to SASS (Single Action Shooting Society) specifications, making them the choice for cowboy action shooters who demand authentic round-nose profiles alongside consistent performance.
The traditional conical shape features knurling at the base of the bullet, which holds an even distribution of lubricating wax over the entire bearing surface. This reduces leading in the barrel and delivers the stability and accuracy needed for revolvers and lever-action rifles.

Used these bullets in my .357 Magnum revolver for a few shooting sessions. The round-nose profile matches what I expect from cowboy action shooting. They seated smoothly and felt consistent in performance. No issues with leading in the barrel, which is a big plus for regular use.

Good quality bullets with a solid feel. The knurling helps keep the lubricant in place, which improves reliability. I’ve used them in both revolvers and a lever-action rifle. Performance is stable and predictable.

Ordered a few boxes for my range practice. The bullets are easy to handle and seat evenly. The pre-lubrication saves time during reloading. I noticed no variation in weight or shape between batches.
