I picked up a couple Lyman molds from a friend to try out. Here is what I have:
Lyman 4 cavity 357446 - 158 grain SWC
Like the four hole mold but it sure gets heavy after a while. I tried to find some information about this mold and what little I could find did not sound promising. Some posts show that this bullet is not accurate. I have enough problems - don't need to start with a bullet that doesn't work well. :roll:
Lyman 2 cavity 452374 - 225 grain RN
I plan to shoot these in a new 45 I just purchased. I find the single lube band interesting and assume I seat the bullet just above the lube ring.
I have been using Lee molds for my 9, 38, and 40 all in the TL. The 38's seem to work well enough, haven't tried the 9's or 40's just yet even though I have had them for well over a year.
Any information would be helpful. And no I have not slugged my barrel yet. The 38's are shot in multiple firearms, the 9's the same. A single 40 and 45 - for now anyway.
