RE: Starline Brass - Gunlaker - 03-02-2016
IR, for some reason the prolate PP bullet is listed in the grease groove section. I bet that doesn't help sales. I've bern meaning to email them. I don't know that is an exact copy of Brent's shorter bullet, but I'll bet it is. I wonder if they'd make it in .446"...
Chris.

Do you know which 1 of the Buffalo Arms bullets is the prolate bullet? I went through the online catalog, and can't seem to find it listed as such. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I don't think you will find a Danielson prolate mould at BACO or Brooks.
Dr. Richard Gunn and Brent worked on designing this bullet. And the mould was cut in a tool shop.

This one sure looks close though Kurt. I wonder if someone got BACO to copy his mold. I know that Brent has recommended this particular mold few times:

Chris it sure does, but it does not have that slight step down from the shank to the ogive, also not having the length of the ogive we don't know if it's proportional with the shank diameter. The ogive looks longer then Brent's
