If anyone has any of these 3 molds could you tell me what the actual diameter of the bullets does they cast?

I maybe able to cast some later this week 375296 I think that the right number or is it 375269 ??
I have the lyman 335 grn mouldand it cast with 20-1 around .377 this also depends a little on temp of alloy and mould. I shoot it as cast in my high wall.
Thanks Country Gent for that information , and yes Teddy that is the correct number
Yup the 335 gr. drops bigger for me then the smaller ones, prolly .378".
I've got the 250 gr. Lyman in both PB and GC; both drop .377-378 from the 50/50 COWW/Range Scrap alloy I use for smokeless loads. Consistent enough that I pan lube and load 'as cast' for my .38-55 Highwall.
