I've been busy this morning!
Got up at 0330 hrs., made coffee, worked the crossword puzzle in the local 'azz-wipe special' and then went to the Bears Den and whipped these out in 2 1/2 hrs. Most accurate bullet I've found yet shooting through my Shiloh 45 2 7/8. These are @ 1-40 alloy! Dry wrap with Seth Cole paper @ 0.0018" thickness takes them to .451" final diameter and they slide in the chamber like a good fitting glove. Can feel the paper sliding in the lands going forward into full battery.Big Grin

530 gr. BACO Paper Patch @ 1-40 alloy, .446" as cast diameter.

Good looking bullet Rick! I use a .441 Baco with 9 # onion skin paper in my 2 7/8th! I believe the nose of my bullet is a little different though! Cast in pure lead it weights around 549.

RE: I've been busy this morning!
Rick is that BACO's standard nose shape or one of the money bullet varieties?

Don, that nose shape appears very close in profile to the BACO (greaser) money bullet nose I've been tryin' out!

'course, I have been wrong ... before .... once.
That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!
