    Yeah it looks like that one. I have a flat base one. Was going to buy one from him if I couldn't find one. A hard hitting and accurate design. Feeds in my pistol great.

    Cast from linotype they drop around 290 grains with the diamentions you stated. Mine has the DD ring on the nose which is a option. I think it really helps with the accuracy. I tried a softer mix but...
