New bullet

[Don McDowell]

This may well have been an exercise in spending money on another mould. LOL
The nose pour adjustable that is shooting so extremely well in several of my rifles, and like crap in some others, is working very well with a base that is .6 inches long. And it has a sharp transition from the base to the nose.
This one I had him keep the base to .5, and increased the diameter .001, with about a 10 degree transition.
Both of my dual diameter 44's are nose pour so the base length can change a lot. LOL. Both shoot extremely well. But yes the tempatation to have Brooks make a fixed length base pour with that original postel nose is strong.. The problem I have is trying to figure out if the length should be a compromise that will shoot in both the 19 twist Shiloh barrel and the 17 twist in the 44 strait or just for one or the other..
