Well looks like i can get 100 bullets for $20.75 + S/H from BS. I am going to wait for those .454's from Idahoron to come in so i can see how the 454's fit in the bore. Dan would have to order a .453 sizer and i dont really want to cause that much trouble. If i have to, i'll settle on a .452 conical and glue a felt wad onto the bottom to hold it a little tighter in the bore.

I think i'll go ahead and stock up on them and go with 200 conicals. That should keep my rifle shooting for a few days :D

What bullet is he going to make for you? What mold?

I have 12 Lee Mini's on the way and 15 paper patched 459-405-HB's that weigh 386 gr. I sized the patched bullets to .451 but remember if you think that they will work but you want them bigger you can paper patch them and size them to .454 or .452 and those are easy to get regular size dies that cost under 20 dollars.
Let me know how they work for you. I didn't have much luck with the naked Mini's. After I paper patched them I liked them. But the hollow base bullets shot so well I didn't go back. Remember to lube them before you shoot them.
I sent them priority mail so you should see them in a couple of days. Ron
