The Lee Ruger .456 bullet anyone using it.

Is any one using the Lee .456 Conical Bullet in a Walker, 1860 Army or 1858 Rem. ?

Some will say it's too wide for the chambers and will add too much pressure on the loading lever assembly. Maybe so. I created boolits for my Ruger that also drop at 0.456" and I use them in my NMA that I had reamed to 0.449" with chamfered mouths. I don't notice any issues after hundreds of loadings.

never tried them in anything else but, they worked awesomely in my Ruger when I had it. feller that bought the mould from me used it for 45acp.
