tx: Just got mine in last week. It drops a nice looking Lyman style sabot slug. One problem I've had is that the small bolts that hold on the sprue plate and work as the stop will jamb up the sprue plate unless you pour a pretty small puddle on top (lead freezes between the two) As they drop from my mould the top band measures .408 and the bottom of the skirt measures .410 I haven't fired them yet but my first test loads were built on a plastic wad with the petals removed and two nitro cards then the slug with an overshot card and roll crimped. I'll post how they do when I get to the range. It's my second Svarog mould and they are well built. Gp
