    .22 caliber 45gr FN cast boolit mould?

    Does any one know of a mould for a .22 caliber 45gr FN boolit available? Or are they custom order only? I'd be wanting at least a .225" diameter or .226". Never have cast such a little boolit so I image your alloy would have to be pretty warm as well as the mould. I don't have a preference for gas checked or plain base so maybe a cavity of each
    Firearm would be a .22 Hornet and of course, .223 Remington

    Look at a Lyman 225438, I have one and it is 46grs with WW. It is a gas check design and you can use it with or without (your choice). hope that helps

    Take a look at this one. I have cast over 120 lbs of this boolit in the BRP version. Swede is finally going to cut it. It works very well in the 22 hornet, K Hornet and Bee.
