does anyone make one?

i like the ohaus boolit, but i think it would really shine a little lighter, maybe 255 grain. I know it's designed to leave a ton of case capacity to allow for maximum use of the 45 AR case. Or is there a similar design boolit with minimal base inside the actual case? I have shot some Ohaus and they're pretty damn fun, i think it would rock a little lighter though

thanks guys!

You might contact 45 2.1 and see if he will design one for you.

Here are his 45 Ohaus bullet and the 454423 he designed for my old LEE Group Buy.
Both are fine in 45AR.

I think MiHec could issue this with a hollow base to reduce weight to around 255 gr. You do know there is a current GB going on with hollow points that would get the weight down some also?

Ok so after a little auto rim break I'm back.

Does anyone have pics of the 454423, 454424, and 45 ohaus side by side?
Which one seats the shallowest?

I'm thinking the 454423 original design might be the way to go. I think it's exactly what I want in my AR loads

Does anyone have the specs on this if I wanted to have one made? Thanks guys!
