Looking at these two.
These will be shot from a NM Vaquero and 5 shot 1858 Conversion.
Will the hollow point mold cast just as good non-hollow point as the non hollow point mold  ?
How hard is it to cast a good hollow point ?
Is the NM vaquero stout enough to use for hunting with the hollow point ?
I shoot mostly Silhouette matches, so I think the 200 would be better than the LEE 255 I use.

Should cast a FN about the same as a HP – you will get a ring on the nose from the pin.

The first of your list is going to cast a 240Gr. FN bullet.
It cast about a 200Gr. HP – may be a little heavier than what you are looking for.

Both are great bullets and perform real good

Why is it listed as a 210gr. bullet ?
I like the bullet style but wanted about 200 gr. not hollow point.

Has to do with the original designer – that is what he called it
We made it to the dimensions it was designed to.
