Thanks 7BR but problem is that use of regular GC dont fit this bullets i think it is for a old lyman/rcbs GC who is not produce any moore.
Felix now i have same figurs Dia of shank is 0.3996-0.4015 lenght of shank is 0.2283
un size bullet is 0.4114
Number of the Lyman mould he use is 497 another number on the mould is 410610 B
I need some help to find GC to 41 mag. Lyman have some moulds who is constructed for GC but the problem is nobody produce that kind of GC any moore. That is not the Hornady/Gator type. ( is it...
I agree with Sundogg1911 if lyman, saeco etc produce 6 cavitys in cast iron i have bye a coupel direktly.
I use vv N 310 3.0 grains to 148 grain wc 38 spl
or vv N 310 3.4 grains to 158 grain lead bullet 38 spl.
This is light loads i use. I have S&W 686 with 6" barrel.
I dont like the quality of LEE moulds i spend same dollar more and have quality iron mould from saeco,mimek, Lyman, etc
