Any interest in a bullet like this one? Maybe also in an RG config which would bring the weight roughly to 350ish? Maybe a crimp groove?

I dropped it down to .450 in the front of the crimp groove. If you think I should bump it up to .455 or so, let me know.

I don’t know if .450″ is too small. All my molds are with the negative tolerance are .455″-456″.

I can change it to .455. Do you want .455?

What is the advantage/disadvantage of .450″ vs .455″?

I don’t know really. You obviously get more rifling engagement with .455″ vs .450″. Would have to be considerably smaller to be a bore rider.

Considering how large the radius of the nose is and its length I think we could get away with .455 fine.

I think that the .455″ would be better wouyldn’t it? I’ll be PC’ing these, but I always thought that the looser the bullet, the more the potential for leading.

IDK, I’m probably out of my league on this topic.

Ok, here are the updated drawings. What think ye? The RG (hollowpoint version) will come with flat point pins in case you want to cast without a HP, the shallow cup point pins as shown in pic 2, and the deeper hollow point pins as shown in pic 3 for max expansion. It will be like having almost 3 bullet molds in one!

I’d be happy with the bullet as it stands right now, but please speak your mind if you have any changes you want. If everyone is ok with it, I can go ahead and start the group buy!

I think we have kicked this around enough, I think it looks good and can’t wait to shoot them.

I concur.

With this and a few other things I’m going to order, I’ll make the 1000 dollar club.
