    The 452374 is a great mold, I wore one out several years ago.

    IMO the H&G 68 or a copy of it avaliable from several makers would be my bullet of choice! its accurate and feeds from well from about every 45 acp chambered gun ive seen it used in as well as two sa tompsons rifles. although i have moulds for Saecos # 068 200 gr swc, # 062 170gr swc , #058 215gr swc & rcbs 230 rn the 068 gets used more than all the other combined.

    Still a bit jarring to see a GC on a .45 ACP boolit. I wonder how it would
    work sans the GC?

    I'll probably never know until it's paper patched in the New Englander with the fast twist .458 bore diameter!
