I admire your ability to cope. Many would/will never live with today's primer prices.
I imagine the popularity of the Legend has people buying every .358" rifle projectile they find.
I think I may have a piece of a box of .35 Rem cartridges and maybe even some brass, but no hunting bullets.
When I had a 35 Remington Contender I used some .358" cast handgun bullets at moderate velocities. They shot fine.
You may want to look over at the cast boolits forum.

Those are great for bolt guns and single shots, but are not safe to use in a lever gun.

No, their boat sales alone could keep it open, my go to place for fishing stuff, can't beat their prices on st croix rods.

Apparently all my trips by there must have been either Sunday or after 6pm.

Probably so. Before COVID they were open on Sunday until 5pm. Now they are closed on Sunday.

I am in the same boat. I have what may be a dumb question, does the Lyman book cover handgun and rifle ammo?

Thank you
Single shot is better than no shot.
180 gr xtp 357 bullets work good in 35 guns. Heck, any 357 bullets will work.
They cost a little more but fury bullets are very nice. He custom makes them and has 358 soft points that'll work in a cowboy gun.
FWIW A 350 Legend won't shoot a 358. Mine won't shoot a 357. 355 and 356 work.

I really like the Legend.
Ended up getting a 356 sizing die and can use 355, 356, 357, and 358 bullets if need be. Haven't sized a 358 bullet yet but 2 passes will make a copper jacketed 357 into a 356.
Adds a little flare.
