      I just got this mould in and thought it would be plenty good enough for this bore. Yet upon slugging the bore it comes out .317. Now what??? There is a .010″ gap between this mould and the next size up.

        Beagle the mould with flue tape. Simples!

          Have you tried it in the rifle yet?

          Who knows it might just work, some of my Enfields prefer bullets a smidgen under groove diameter. I use a soft alloy around BHN 12 for all my loads up to 2000 fps.
