Double cavity mould? The one of the left looks like the mould was cold. Rounded corners/edges that should be sharp.
Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it.

The one on the left is on the left. The one on the right is on the right.
HAHAHAHA
The Dove
I was thinking that also, however I did not post as I might have been wrong.
better picture to come(bats died) These are from the lee 310 .429 mold.
The one on the left looks wider at top.

Is this a trick question?
the one on the right is a softnose?
It's wider and shorter.
So, do you already know the answer, or are you just begging the question?
I can tell, it has an expiration date on it!
no. that's the California compliant encoding.Originally Posted by 44man

heavy lead is correct. the one on the right was cast as a soft nose WDWW and the one on the left is ACWW.Attachment 9666
this inverse picture shows the line in the ojive where the soft and WW bond. I will try these out on bambi this weekend, and post autopsy photos if lucky.

I cast some last year from adifferent mold to try in a sabot from my ML but never got a shot.I found BruceB's thread about casting softnose.
....and I was going to guess about a quarter inch apart.
