I just cast a bunch of 429640's from a Lyman mould and they're all coming out at .432 to 433 diameter before sizing. This is the semi-wadcutter mould (no longer available) and they weigh 287-288 grains with a gas check.

Single cavity casts .4305 in metal with lots of lino. Weight varies about 15 grains according to alloy. .756 OAL. Is old Ideal mould.

Works through action in Marlin 94 when crimped in crimp groove.
