There’s many Cast bullet makers out there that make quality, cheap ammo.
I’ve been using Matt’s bullets for years now in .357 .45 and .50
He sizes them to request and makes them out of pure lead if specified

Do Matt’s bullets come lubed like in his photos? Do all big bore air rifles use lube bullets?
When you branch out in the bigger bores realm you don’t want to rely much in the conventional offering from Airgun retailers.

I emailed Crosman with a couple questions….
Question: What is the twist rate new Bulldog .357 barrel?
Answer: It is 1:14 RH twist, 6 lands/grooves
Question: Can you tell me the diameter and tolerances of the lands and grooves on the new .357 bulldog?
Answer: No, We consider that proprietary information. What I can tell you is that it is designed to shoot a soft cast bullets (with no copper jacket) of .357 caliber. We have had the good results with weight bullets between 125 and 190 grains in the Ø.357/.358” range.

So this eliminates most ammo from Pyramyd Air. The only stuff they have in diameter size is:
EunJin-9mm
Air Venturi Round ball
and of course Benjamin Nosler Ballistic Tip eXTREME (toooo much $$$$$$)
Looks like cast your own or Mr hollowpoints
Okay I just notice this particular shot and yes I watch to many videos on this damn gun… lol
Well anyways I love it when you can see lead right before impact at 55 yds @1:31 into video

pretty good discription of the gun.. though when shooting they dont tell him his holdover for longer shots… :confusedn:
800 max fps with a 145-grain Nosler bullet
900 fps max with a 95-grain bullet
200 ft-lbs. max with a 170-grain bullet
So anyone get the email from Pyramyd Air about there mistake in there first Ad for the Bulldog? They were offering 500 Bullseye bucks if you can quote what it said.

Loudness: 3-Medium (compared to : Benjamin Trail NP Nitro Piston, AirForce Talon SS )
Cylinder size: 340 cc
Barrel Length: 28.0″

900 fps with a 95gr Bullet equals to 170 FPE
I guess I should say those are the stats that Pyramyd Air is showing…
