WANTED 45 Cal REAL conicals

[Eterry]

I have a 45 underhammer, Heritage Model, 1/48" twist. Before buying another bullet mold that doesn't group I'd like to try this.
Does anyone cast the Lee REAL 45 conical? I'd like to try both the 200 and 250 grain bullet. They'd have to be very soft lead.

I'm looking for 15-25 each. I have some 58 minies I cast or cash money, whichever works best for you

Thanks y'all.

Please post your results.
I have the same rifle, and have thought of trying the REAL bullets also.
Thanks
Rod

I just picked up the 200 grain real mold,
haven't used it yet,probably be two or three months before I cast some,but if you haven't come up with any by then I'll send you a few.

 

[ADK Bigfoot]

I can cast you some. PM me for details.

I have some 250's that I cast about a month ago, but I've run them through a .457 sizer for airgun use. If those would work, I can send you some. If I get a chance in the next couple of days, I'll see if I can get some more cast and get you some un-sized ones.

 

[Eterry]

Sorry guys I forgot to watch this thread. Just saw your posts. I think the unsized are the ticket.

Thanks guys, I'll get some time off and give the H&A Heritage a good work out.

If you use a over powder wad, they seal much better. flatrate boxes are great, lube with 50/50 bee wax n mutton tallow

Hey, what weights did you send? I only have the 250gr. If you sent some of them, maybe I’d be just duplicating your effort.

Sorry lonedave, I meant to tell you I have 200s enroute. I'd still like to try both and see what's the best weight.

I have l currently have 6 bee hives. I don't think wax will be an issue.
Here's a wild swarm we caught, some jars of cut comb, a frame of capped honey, a hive.

I've always been fascinated with bee keeping! They are some amazing critters. I never realized some of them can be so easy to handle without them tearing you up.

I have had bees you could di a hive inspection without gear and others you didn’t go near the hive without it.
Nice catch. That was a lot of comb outside without any protection
