    2. SAECO #458 45cal 250gr SWC, short nose loads to ~1.600"oal, with handles, runs .452". Bought used off eBay and got burned. The "male" side of the blocks is in great shape but whoever had it first managed to wallow out the female side of the alignment pins and buggered up one of the four cavities. They also stripped the heads of the mounting screws so the handles are basically permanently attached. I TIGed a plug into the sprue hole of the bad cavity and ran it as a three cavity with good results. $60tyd now $50tydvia USPS Priority Medium Flat Rate.

    3. NOE 360-230FN aka "35XCB". This is a 230grain spire point designed with a gas check base and modest cone front end for perfect fit in a .358Win. IIRC, it ran .361" (typical NOE on the large side). The blocks are tight when cold but seemed to warp with heating the few times I tried it and the three middle cavities would have small fins. $30tyd via USPS Priority Medium Flat Rate (basically yours for shipping) SOLD TO CALIBOOSE

    First post of interest here or via PM gets item. Willing to combine two 45s for $75shipped.

    Please note that I live on Afognak Island north of Kodiak in Alaska and get mail once a week on Thursdays (weather permitting!) so shipping won't be immediate.

    Thanks for looking

    I only had range scrap available for casting lately but the SAECO ran .451-452 with that. Being a small “4” cavity, it runs pretty hot.
