Double cavity mould? The one of the left looks like the mould was cold. Rounded corners/edges that should be sharp.

The one on the left is on the left. The one on the right is on the right.

So, do you already know the answer, or are you just begging the question?

heavy lead is correct. the one on the right was cast as a soft nose WDWW and the one on the left is ACWW.9666
this inverse picture shows the line in the ojive where the soft and WW bond. I will try these out on bambi this weekend, and post autopsy photos if lucky.
