I thought they were no problem.Those are not the same bullet. I'm not sure what you are trying to imply.
FWIWOld school long range style. What are your experiences?
A masking tape paper patch??? Does the tape come off the bullet within 6-10 feet of the muzzle? XFWIW
All my shooting and hunting is at close range and most is done with .52 caliber Knights. For the .52 I use a .520 grease groove mold that is weight adjustable from 300 to 600 grains. Also use Lee 515-500F with a single wrap of dollar store masking tape. It fits the .52 well, plus it's cheap, simple, quick and accurate enough for my 50-yard shots.
Powder choice depends on bullet weight: T7 for .52 bullets up to 400 grains, Pyro RS for 400-600 grains, and real black 2F and 1F for testing slugs over 600 grains (haven't hunted with these yet). I change powders with bullet weight to keep pressures reasonable and still get the highest accurate MVs. I vary powder charges from 80 to 150 grains(Volume) with all combinations.
Idahoron, is your Accurate 45 Cal mold a standard mold in Tom's catalog? If so what is the mold number? Size & Weight?

This is it. With the lead I'm using the vullets weigh 401 grains. Mt lead is 8.5 to 9 bhn.
