Buy a pack. sight in and you'll have left overs for the seasons hunt!
My dad and brother crack me up, They usually order 2 packs of either 295 or 348s, sight their rifles in and still have 9 or 10 left for hunting. They get the 15 pack as they use the Aerotips.

Nice shooting there Underclocked.. I have to get into my shop and cast me up a bunch of them 405 grain (*actually they are a 423 grain of pure lead) and then size them down to .451 for my White. I might have to get one of them fancy barrels like Semisane some day...

We just can't compete with the 24 hour/all PB/ all the time tv, radio and internet blitz.
That and most don't live the crusade.
UC - great shooting!! Hard to believe its possible with plain ole lead conicals without a pretty plastic base and high price!

RE: New Barrel Has Arrived
UC, GREAT SHOOTING! I use the Lee 459-405-HB but I shoot mine paper patched. My bore is .458 and I size to .451, then paper patch them and size them again to .451 They fit snug and shoot GOOD!
SS, here is a thought. How about A 43 mauser mould. It throws to .446 and then you paper patch to about .452 if these don't go down good enough for you then size to .451 and you will have a jacketed bullet that looks like this
And shoots like this!
This was with a TC Renegade, Green Mountain 1-18 twist .458 Ron

RE: New Barrel Has Arrived
Interesting idea with the .43 Mauser mold Ron. I've got so many projects on the table now I just don't know if I can handle another one.
