RCBS 45-230-CM Load Book Data

[justindad]

Is the RCBS 45-230-CM in the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook #4? I’m 12 hours away from my books, and I might get this mold tomorrow for a Winchester 1873 in .45 Colt. I want to strictly adhere to book data for this action.

Also, has anybody had trouble with this boolit in a lever action?

I ran a sim bullet design in an 1873 & 1866 replica with great results. As far as following book data strictly, its almost impossible so I dont bother. You are not likely using the same brass or primers, so not strictly. Also todays availability in powders may require you use something other than what Lyman has in their data. Load manuals are guides not bible.
