RE: .44-77 PP bullets.
I agree with regard the ogive and meplat. Its certainly more pointed than I expected a Gibbs to be but its here now so I'll cast some up and see how I go. I usually run at 16/1 and thats the alloy I specified. The mould is heating up currently and taking a while to get heat through the blocks. I've found this is not unusual with bigger blocks..and certainly seems to take longer the first time they are used. Dont know if thats my impatience or the character of the steel though.
