I read an article about heavy weight bullets in the 45 acp(300 gn ish). There was a little talk in the group buys section on the 45-270-SAA thread.
I'm wondering if we could turn out a mold that looked similar to the bullets used in that article. Would there be any infringement on their idea?
Maybe add a rebated boattail onto the back of the 230 BDacp design? Maybe we could section some cases to see where the brass starts to get thick and by how much, then put the rebated boat tail in that spot. How much rear sholder area do you think would be needed? Would it need a pronounced step of around .05" +-, then start the boat tail to keep the edge square when it leave the muzzle? Or could we just start at the max OD and then taper in to the base?
