Thanks Don. I have a few more bullets cast and patches already cut, I will load them up and see how they fly. Tim.

Looking forward to seeing how that bullet treats you

Grumpybear, if not too late you might consider reducing the ogive diameter by .002". That would help with being able to see the transition from bore diameter to the start of the nose. Tim

Thanks.

But too late, its in my hands already, we'll have to see how it pans out.

And this is for some of my .45 cal rifles.

B that 445 bullet should work well in the 45’s altho it may prove better in the 16 twist barrels when the distance gets long
Sc 55 w part will likely be your best bet to wrap it with

Thanks Don, my plan is to start with SC 55W, once I get to casting. Have 2, 17 twists, and soon to have another 16 twist. But with the hollow base the length "should" work well in the 18 twists also.

1.4 flatbase will work in 18 twist 90's and 70's, altho the velocity from the 70 might leave it a a bitt vulnerable to cross winds past 600.

90's and 100's.

that'll work
