Ended up with just under 500 for this first run, I like this mold and the results.
Got a few frosted when temp got a little high, but they'll shoot.
Got enough now to do some loading and shooting. [smilie=w:

I've got the same mold . How hard are you gonna push them ? Tumbled once or twice ?

Most of these I'll use in my S&W 460 and I'll probably start out with 39 grns of 4227 and work up to see how they do.
I'm going to give them all one more tumble with the lube.

I use the same boolit for my .45 Colt pistols and rifle. I have also paper patched them and shot them through my 45-70. It's a hard one to beat.
