Bullet Nose Profiles

[Martini2]

Admittedly this subject peeked my interest because I purchased Lyman mold # 457122 HP at 330 gr. for short range 45-70 loads. Have yet had chance to make casts due to health issues. I liked this hollow point design because the nose cavity pushes lead into the body profile for perhaps better grip in bore. Worst case these pills could pass thru a Lee .454 sizing die and be sent forth with my 45LC ;-) I have both a S&W 25-5 and 24 inch '92 lever rifle used in side matches. I believe the 45-70 rifle intended for use has 1:20 twist. Best M2
