Received a few days ago and just tonight ran a couple bullets through it to check the size: .268" right on the $$. For the Lyman 4500. Thank you lathesmith!!
These are Ideal 266469 which are Louverin bullets. They drop a bit larger around .270"/.269". Current Lyman 266469 drop .266". I'm going to load these with 5744 and shoot them this spring/summer in my Carl Gustaf m/38 with the Tasco 6-18x44 scope. Its my ammo testing platform. I think the Lyman press needs a wee little bit of adjusting.
Whould love to hear a range report. I have wanted to try that bullet in my 260 Rem.
