Does anyone have 45 wadcutter mold they could recommend?
Need one to cast big enough to clean up in a .454 sizer.

Good Cheer,
Check NOE's list of molds in the vendors section. I believe I saw a few there recently.

Oh boy. Went grubbing around in the fun room.

Long time ago got a 458-260 WFN GC four cavity from LBT. That's almost a wadcutter. But, it has been neglected because it's too heavy for the 45Colt because of barrel rise. With wheel weights it casts like 270 grains or so. So, started thinking about it.
What if it got hollow pointed in the center two cavities to really lighten them up? That way the hollow pointed boolits go .454 to the double action and the solids go .452 to the H&R.
This mold may just work out after all!

If you can find a copy of the SAECO 453 mold it throws a 235 grain full WC (depending on alloy).
