I have just found in my junk, a hollow base mold.
It is a lee 445-288-M LEE. I suspect it was made for muzzel loaders.
I have a nice old 71 84 mauser, see where this is going?
The boolit has small lube grooves for tumble lube. IF I would load these in 11mm Mauser brass what powder should I start with? I have heard of hollow base boolits blowing the skirt when exiting the muzzel and giving poor results with too much pressure.
I am hoping some of you may have had some experience with something like this.
The 71 84 has a groove of .446.
Happy shooting
