Hi.
I buy most of my moulds at gun show. Most often they are Lyman. To avoid carring lots of referance material, can anybody tell me if the first three number indicate ( eg. 311) that the bullet will cast out at .311" with #2 alloy? Also, do the remaining numbers only refur to bullet design? I also find moulds with other markings, but I can't find very good mould info on Lyman moulds. I know there are hunders of Lyman mould designs out there from the turn of the century to today. Is there a website or book, someplace where all there moulds from days gone by are listed.
Any help would be :castmine:great. Thanks. Ed.
