    NOE 460-405 ACTUAL drop size and weight

    Can somebody who owns this mold, or preferably multiple somebody's, tell me what the drop size and weight is with your alloy? The website says .460 diameter and 391gr with wheel weights. I was hoping that it would drop at least 405gr and a little larger than .460.

    I bought a 2 cavity mold a few months ago. 1 cav is PB, the other GC.
    using COWW with about 2% tin,
    they measure .4615"
    PB are 394gr
    GC are 387gr. (as dropped)
