    311467 as cast...

    a friend and I are looking at this mould for our Swiss rifles. Anybody have some cast up that they can measure for us?

    Thanks,

    Rich

    Lyman 311467....

    Mine is a hollow point mold. I cast them using an alloy of 50/50 wheel weights/lead. Nominal wt. for my "keepers" runs 176.5 +/- 0.5 gns.
    That's "naked"...before lube or gas check. They are dropping out @ .313-.314.
    1.065-1.067 long. I size them to .311 and have gotten excellent results from a very mild load in a .308.
    Hope this helps...
    Cheers,
    Don
