Thought I’d give you fellows a shout. I need to buy about 50 bullets to try out my new rifle. Diameter as cast is .392” to .393”, 16:1, straight side for PP and about 400 to 415 gns. Need to order the mold this week but it’s a long wait for delivery.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Thanks, Richard

Cartridge and Twist? Freebore?
You don't want to have the wrong LENGTH bullet for your rifle.

Re: .40 cal. PP bullets
I'm going to give BACo's 380gr (casting at 377 for me) DEPP bullet a try at the SE Regional 600yd match in October. I'll stick with greasers for the BPCR match.
