Saw on a thread about Dixie close outs on Challanger moulds.
Checked them out and got three I thought might work in my Snider. They all list at 585. Just got through casting up a few to see what they would cast at. Got lucky and they drop at 590-591. Which will do niceyl in mine. At least will fit the sluged diameter. Will have to wait till I do some shooting to see how they shoot.
They list as:
585-515 WC
585-460 Conical
585-315 SWC
I plan to take the base plug down till I get a hollow base about 1/8 to 3/16 deep. That works well in my 58 Musketoon.
Pics are included.
