I bought a Accurate mold (#45-300AG) drawing shows .425 shank so is .429 gas check the correct size ? I am confused as I bought 1000 .452 Gator checks for what I thought would be for 45 cal. boolits for 45 Colt.

Gator .452s should be fine.

Don't they fit?

Tom, I emailed you what was happening.I think I need to measure the gas checks, possible I received g/c's for a rifle and the bags is miss marked.

Tom is a genius he got it figured out that the g/c's were springing back.I annealed a handful, had to do it twice to get satisfactory results.First time out this morning I was pleasantly surprised after getting the sights set and finding my bead.The Winchester/Miroku 1892 is really liking this bullet sized .456 and 21grs. of IMR 4227
