Are you sure it’s not the 429650 av? Which is a 300 grain semi wad cutter

I looked in every old reference book I have and couldn't come up with anything on 429640AV.
Does it look like the 429640 GC HP but with the gas check and without the hollow point ?
Like a solid point version of the 429640 ?
It might be the fore runner of 429650 GC solid point .
Post some photo's of it .

It says ''4 2 9 6 4 0 A V''... Also its a gas check 2 cavity mould and NOT a hollow point. I am not computer literate... PM me an email or cel l will send a pix

I have a version of that mold in a custom mold. It weighs around 290 with 50/50. It is by far the most accurate bullet in my 44mag.
