405 Grain Springfield Bullet - Stephen Borud - 01-17-2016
Good evening,
I am looking for Govt Springfield 405 grain bullet mold for a friend. I have a Rapine mold! Who else builds that mold?
Thanks
Stephen

while a kinda cheezy mould the lee works quite well with a little care , it throws a bullet designed by spence wolfe a real close copy.
