Well just got this guy in the mail the other day bought it on the cheap.

Casted about 250 boolits all 4c darn near the same Dia. and everything fell out like rain all with in 2/10th of a grain right at 180.

I'm sure know one will be able to ID this.:bigsmyl2:

Looks like a 130 style 45 cal mold. The H&G 130 is a 180 grain swc with a beviled base.

Arlin, the 130BB is the bevel base version. Most of the 130's I've owned have been plain base.

Ya it's a 130 no BB the guy who listed this on ebay spelled Hensley wrong (henley) and listed it as someone machined the BB off, I contacted him asked him why he thought it was machined he said he did not cast at all and a friend told him they did not come without a BB so it must have been machined off, well I knew they did as I had a 8c no bevel that I sold and jumped on this one to replace, it was a great buy for ebay at this time $56 and that included shipping.

Some time even a blind dog finds a bone.:-D

Reminds me of a Lyman 452488, 195gr swc. That one will allow a fired case to eject from a Glock 30!

Lucky you! I have one like that and I gotta say it drops boolits magically.
