    Angry Winchester USA Ready 230 grain TC flat point

    This ammo shoots amazing in my 1911s, can anyone tell me how I can pull a bullet and have a mold made to this projectiles's exact dimensions?

    Thanks

    Look at SAECO/ Redding designs. For many years, I've used one that casts a 230 grain flat nose bullet. The only drawback is that it is a bevel base design.

    Have you looked at the Lee mould? That one shoots well for me.

    You will need an inertia bullet puller that is pounded on a piece of wood and the weight of the bullet pulls itself out of a case. They are fairly inexpensive and a must have for any reloading bench.

    I too use the Lee 452-230-TC for my 3 45 ACP guns, ZI used a drill to remove the beveled base to cast flat bases. Sizing the bullet smooths out any irregularities and I get a flat base with good corners. Works quite well for me...

    You can pull a bullet & measure specs. Match it to a mold from Accurate or modify one of his molds to get exactly what you want. Though I think the Lee 230TC is pretty much what most will look like.
