New at this casting thing, but having great success with a 25-20 gas checked boolet and a 45-70 457 422 gr gas checked boolet. My new BigHorn Armory 90A in 454 Casull will soon(?) be here so I ordered a 454 350 RF 2 cavity with one GC and one PB. How do I get the right gas check for this boolet? Haven't cast any yet, so no measurements.. Thanks..Les

Hornady 45 cal gas check or any of the others. One of our members here, Blammer, has some good ones too. PM him.

Oh yeah, excellent choice in mold. NOE is one of the best you can buy IMHO.

I shoot 45 cal pistol (thin) and 45 cal rifle (thick) from Blammer in my 454 Casull. I haven't noticed a difference between the two when shooting. I would buy thin ones because they are easier to size.

Welcome to the world of casting. What do you plan on hunting with your 454?

Djones, will use carbine on deer and bear. Ground squirrels should be in major trouble too..
Calamity, PM sent. Thanks guys, Les
