    Need some commercial cast hunting 45LC

    Too danged hot for me to cast down here in Alabama right now. I'd like to find a source for some 45 Colt .452 sized in the 250-255 gr range. I'd like them soft enough to hunt deer with. RNFP or Keith or Flat point with a large meplat would work. I'm planning on buying 250 to 500 depending on price. I am sighting in a new El Patron and a new, New Vaquero. I have some 260's and 270's from Mihec, have some 260's from Arsenal Moulds too but haven't found a recipe that either of the guns like. I'm about out of my own cast stuff and like I said, its too dang hot to cast right now. Any suggestions? Recommendations? What BHN should I be looking for? Not looking for nuclear stuff. I'll be running 7-8 gr of Herco or 231 probably. I would appreciate whatever help I can get.

    Where in South Alabama are you? I have a lot of boolits that I'll probably only melt down if I don't get another .45 Colt.......
