Need Help Designing a .475 Bullet

[BrettT/C]

I am going to order a .475 bullet from Mountain Mold for my FA and need advice. I want to use a tangent ogive for this bullet.

Has anyone else had Dan at Mountain Mold make them a .475 bullet for a FA? I need help with the front driving band length. How long can it be before it will not fit?

Thanks
Brett

Brett,

I don't have such a critter in the stable, but that said, you might want to check with Dan via telephone and ask him what he has done in a 475 boolit. I have seen several posts that say he is helpful.

Likely someone here has a 475 and will chime in soon too. Perhaps Lloyd Smale can help you if you PM him.

BrettDepending upon the approximate bullet weight you have in mind, I either have one unused two-cavity mold available for sale/trade or the specifications for a Mountain Mold two-cavity mold you might consider. If you want to discuss either, please PM or E-mail me.
