I was just given a Lyman 245491 mold and can not find any info on it. Does anyone know what grain weight it is?

Are you sure it isn't a 245497? Lyman hated to reuse the last three digits of model ##'s and the 491 is a 38 mold IIRC.

I will double check but I am fairly certain it was a 497.
Never heard of the 245491. Would love to see pictures!
If it is a 491 it should be a 452-491, unless it was mismarked, which did happen on occasion.
