I got semi wad cutters from a howard fleury. they weigh close to 170 gr with lube and gas check. he sometimes sells on gun broker and other sights but I could not find any listings. I can send you his phone if you want. joe

I've looked through a lot of sources but haven't found the combo yet.

Assuming you want 38/357 bullets. If you can do w/out gas checks, Beartooth makes excellent bullets with good lube. Don't recall many casters that make the gas checked bullets you want. Many 38/357 bullets from Beartooth are available in .357"-.360"...

Found them. The .357 LBT, 160 gr, FN-GC at Montana Bullet Works. I know I've been on their website before but must have completely overlooked the bullet.

I looked at their website as well but missed it. Probably overlooked it as I started to study their 180-grain FN-GC bullet for the 303 British. Decided against it as it was $62/100 with shipping. The PPU 180-grain BTSP is $37/100 with shipping through Grafs and that has proven accurate and a killer in my rifles.
