I got in my gas checks and loaded up a bunch with H110 to climb the ladder. The mold makes beautiful hollow points, anyway I used the penta pin and once it got up to the higher velocities it would print an outline on the ar500 steel. I will admit I was proud of my last group as it was the last 5 rounds I fired that day of 80 even though it was only 25 yards but that is a lot of 454 casull goodness at one time. 330 grain bullet topped out at 1550. The best shooters were at 1415 and 1500. 257703

Nice, was in on that buy too but haven't had the chance to warm up that mold yet.

You will love it. I had to crank the the heat up a bit more to 750f but as soon as everything was good and hot they pile up fast. I washed the mold with Dawn and heat cycled 3 or 4 times then started casting. The penta makes a wicked looking bullet. 257793
