So, I’ve managed to procure a 457193 mold as part of my supply gathering. During my research I’ve also come across the 457463 mold. I don’t know what it is about that boolit cross section, but it just seems “right”. Big flat nose, thick base, etc. obviously as a plain base boolit it has its limits, and I’ve read that these wide meplat boolits can have accuracy degradation at higher velocities.
I don’t even know if I can find a mold like this, but in the event I do … anyone out there have experience with it? Just based on looks it seems like it probably more appropriate for the lower loading levels, and perhaps not a candidate for raising up to “Level 2” modern lever gun levels. But, I’d like to hear from you gurus with experience. Application would be deer and hogs.
