I have ordered the Lee 501-440 gc. There does not seem to be very many molds in the 300-350 range available. Is anyone using the Lee mold? Good results? Accurate Molds show some differant boolits that look good but was hoping that some of you could pass on some first hand experience. I think Mihec did a 502-400 that works good but none available. He has another 502-400 alley cleaner, but it looks like the nose is too wide to feed (more like a wadcutter design). I have a freechex III check maker on order, so I am looking for a mold that is cut for a gc

Check out http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?166149-50-Beowulf-SBR-And-his-friends, x101airborne has some cast for his wulf, and sent me a few to try in my wulf, they work great. We might need to see about having his molds remade.

There is a rerun of the MP 502-385 HPGC being purposed now. It goes right at 400 as a solid point, and it shoots Very nice. But even it can give feed problems with it's flat nose.

I've tried a couple of 300g and under loads, I didn't like em much. 350 - 400 seems about optimal in the wulf.
