This mold will drop bullets from .309 to .312 according to the LEE support.
Cast dia is depending on what alloy used.
Normally, I cast all my bullets with WW+some percent of tin added, but I have a lot of pure lead and linotype that allso can be used.

I have never messured any lino or pure lead bullet, so I dont know how they compare to WW+tin bullets when it comes to cast dia.

The weather is bad here, so, I can not go out and cast some lino or pure lead bullets, just to messure the dia, so now I ask you:

-If I want my mold to drop the top dia bullets, which alloy will give me bullets with the largest dia?

Adding tin will make your bullets larger in dia.

the lino will be the lightest and the largest,
if you mix and match you can change not only your hardness but your size too.
i use one mold i have for my 308 pours out at 310 and for my77 jap and it pours out at 313
just by changing alloys andcasting temp.
but harder& bigger isn't always what you want , but maybe you want not so hard and big.
there are ways to accomplish this also

Thanks!
I will use the bullets both as low velocity plinkers and as higher velocity loads for birds and fox.
