What's a good PB Lee or Lyman bullet for 30/06 and .308?

This will be used for Deer and Black bear. (I hate buying gas checks!)
I have a C312-155-2R that I can size down but it's a GS bullet.

PB molds are getting hard to find and expensive. Maybe someone here has an extra Lee 30-150-TL-PB group buy mold for sale? If not, one alternative is to ream out the gas check portion of a given .30cal. mold so that it no longer needs a GC. Several of our members have done so to excellent effect. Another option is to have someone (Buckshot, Smokemjoe, or Zeek) make a press mounted bump die, which when struck with a soft mallet, will obliterate the GC shank and leave a perfectly flat base in its place. Just some food for thought.
