Looking to get a mold for loading 45 Super 255 flat nose. Anyone out there that knows of molds that cast a bullet similar to the buffalo bore 255gr., that feeds reliably in a 45acp/45 Super.

Yes, 45-255C. See:
https://accuratemolds.com/bullet_det...bullet=45-255C
I would bet the Lee 255 RF would feed fine, as it does in any .45 ACP I've shot it in. GF
Saeco 955.
Accurate 45 260c
Oh, oops, didn't see that you want the buffalo bore bullet. Hmm that's a magma mold I think.
If this one feeds, it will work. I like the wide meplat.
Do I understand correctly. 45 super cases are the same dimensions as .45 acp?
QUIS CUSTODIET IPSOS CUSTODES?
This one works too with the solid nose pin in it, I just looked and he doesn't have any left though.
Mine cast 249.5gr
Maybe you could find another, I dunno.
1911 Springfield trophy match
Would you be willing to sell a few of these, so I could experiment with them to see if I can get them to feed in a 1911?
That would be fine.
That looks like a great bullet for the Super....
I use the Lyman/Keith 452423 that casts 250 grains in WWs. Surprisingly no difficulty feeding in Colt unsupported barrels...

My 45 Super feeds all profiles!
Yes, I know, quit being a smart Alec.

Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.
I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.
Success doesn't make me happy, being happy is what allows me to be successful.
I shoot this one in my HK in 45 Super Brass I also load it in my 45 ACP. I agree with this suggestion 100% feeds reliably and if you cast soft PC and lube it has good expansion in my tests. I also,sizeand load this for my Henry 45 Colt lever gun. 8 BHN it expands really feeds like butter.
