Got a perfect 230 grain 45 cal bullet here you guys got to see. It is one of my last 45 cal sets outbound to customer till CH gets on the stick and makes us some more dies for me to improve. The bullet turned out great. I'll get some pics up soon.
Trimed 40 S&W brass to .74 which gave me a 67 grain jacket (removed 2.5 grains) then added 163 grains of lead. I didn't have the perfect core mold yet but a 158 grain .357 boolit mold should be perfect. When filled with wheel weight it should yeild dang near 163 grains for a perfect 230 grain 45 cal bullet.
Oh ya, I notched it to look like a XTP!
Swage On!
