I would think that 155 might be a little better balance but I could be interested in this either weigh (way.) Heh Heh... I would have to pass on one without lube groove though.

Could someone perhaps produce a drawing?
It would be interesting to see if we could do a combined GB with H&G #332 and #374, as I Believe they have the same profile just with a longer base band.
Hollowpoint versions would probably decrease weight around 5-10 grain.
Shoot from a rest at 25/50/100 yards, then post your groupings. That is the only way to compare accuracy results.
ive got the lyman 150 H&G .40 copy. Its my go to bullet if I'm looking for accuracy in a 40. Its a real tack driver in ACCURATE guns like my old 610 and 646. If I were you guys id copy that bullet as closely as possible.
Watching this. Might be interested in a 200 grn +. Ill shoot it in a .45 muzzleloader with sabot.
This is not for a heavy hitter. This is for a light weight target SWC.
You might want to check out Oreos round flatnose designs, they are very nice.

That's a total of 13 molds, hopefully enough to attract more in an Active GB. Please note that except for the HP, the design will stay true to the Lyman 401654 with lube groove and bevel base, unless Mihec says it will be available with other options.
We will need a honcho for this buy that creates the thread in the Active Buys category.

that's the one. Its a great bullet but its only a 150 grain bullet. Its probably the most accurate 40 bullet ive fooled with. I don't know if hollow pointed it would carry enough weight for me. Id like to see something that went about 150 with a decent sized hp cavity 160 or so without a hp. Any lighter and your going to have function problems in some of the smaller guns. In most cases my black guns run better with a heavier bullets a bit slower then they do with a lighter bullet fast enough to run the action. Plus the heavy bullets tend to me more accurate and about the same recoil. I do shoot the 105 lee in the wifes lc9 for practice but that gun for some reason will run them (at the same level none of my other 9s even my full sized guns will) and SHES A GIRL I cant see any advantage to a bullet any lighter but then this isn't my buy. I would still be interested though it you went with a 150 hp.

I've got a stupid question. The OP has indicated that this GB be designated to Miha. That's fine, but do you guys realise that there are at least 10 other Group Buys are up to almost 4 years old? I've got absolutely no problem with his work, I've got 2 or 3, but adding another GB to the list is roughly akin to playing the slot machines,,,,,,,,.
You might want to reconsider your choice of vendor.

I'm on a couple of his buys that are a few years in. I've also watched several go in less than 60 days.
I'm also on a thread at NOEs site for a similar 150 gr 40 bullet and it has gone nowhere in quite some time. I think your looking at a craps shoot either way. Personal preference, Miha's a known commodity to me as I have a few of his molds and I like them all. Hear Al's molds are nice but I don't know them so I like spending money on known quality. But really I'm willing to try Al's but no one seems interested. It's just an inventory run and we have 4 of the 5 we need to get it sent to the block.

Look in Inventory Run request section near bottom of forum listing and it's a few down for the "402 150gr..." Started early February and I posted it on here a few weeks back with no interest.

I would really like to see this happen.

Thanks Yall!
I'd be interested in one with a flat base. I do not care much for bevel base.
