looks like a scaled down 358009, hollow pointed.

I'd try the usual suspects for the base model, and then get it hollow-pointed.
old west bullet molds, CBE, LBT, and of course accurate could always cut you one to be sent off to Erik to be hollow pointed.

Lyman 311-440 ( your mold is a copy of that design) Most likely done by N.O.E. bullet molds or Mihec. Both of these makers can be found on this website. Accurate Molds does a copy as well - But if you want it hollow pointed you will have to send it to Buckshot or Hollow Point Mold Service

It's a great boolit and he still has some molds on hand. :mrgreen: Check the last couple of pages of the buy for info.

That particular boolit in the OP is the MiHec 311440, cast from this mold:

And lubed with my Ideal #1 and BAC.

What a beauty! Hows the accuracy?

The accuracy is as good as most of my other 30-30 boolits. Partly because I only have a Handi Rifle and a 50 yard shooting range. That suits me well in this part of Alabama. I don't get shots longer than 50 yards in the areas where I hunt. (Swamps and bottoms)
I can't much tell you about longer performance from a nice bolt/lever gun in that caliber.
