    difference between the lyman 311413 and the 20 "scraper" ?

    Came upon another mold in my collection ...
    Lyman 4 cavity 311413 , excellent shape , never been used .
    Compared it to the H+G 20 , "scraper groove" that I have and they seem to be almost ..the same boolit.
    Only difference I can see at this point is the lower band on the 413 is not as wide as the 20 , giving it a longer gas check shank.
    curious if their physics will be the same in use .
    thank you

    In days gone by bullet designers though a scraper groove for crud to accumulate was a good idea. It was not, it is useless.
