I plan to cast 458 x 400 grI use for muzzle loader . I run these through a 454 than a 452 reamer to get them to fit a sabot. My plan is to do the same thing and load in 454 casul brass with moderate loads any suggestions. I can also use 45 colt brass.

How much of a lube groove do you have left? Have you measured your chamber/throat yet? The throat on my Encore barrel is "generous" (probably to keep pressures low) and you may be able to load the boolit in regular 460 brass.

Lots of lube grove left . I may pick up a 300 grain mould

I used to shoot a 375gr boolit but went back to the 300gr LFN I use for the Casull and Colt.

What are you sizing the 300 gr bullets to.
