I have seen for sale a Lyman 316275, but cannot find out anything about it. The seller is not a caster, there is no picture of the cavities. 316275 is factory-written on the box, but not sure what is stamped on the blocks. Am trying to get more info/pictures from seller. Any ideas?

Try here. It is on the list but there's very little info.

The Lyman cast bullet handbook illustration and text.
It's a 200 gr RN-PB w/3 lube grooves. The nose appears to be of slightly smaller dia. beyond the "sweeping groove". It's an oldie.

I think it was for the old "J" bore 8mm Mauser rifles. It also can be used in much the same way as the 316475, for grossly oversized .303" and 7.7mm calibers.
