Looking for the fellow in Newnan that cast Bullets

[Kahrnut]

I need some 300 Gr. cast gas jacketed .45 Bullets made up for my .45 Colt. I have a load of lead that I don't need and want to have it either melted or traded.

I assume you meant 'gas checked' , what diameter bullets, .454, or .452?

Currently loading .452 but i do have some .454 but I have not tried them yet to see if there's any accuracy difference.

I've got a Lee 452-300 mould that I have used for heavy 45 colt loads and my muzzleloader. I also have a sizer to size them to .454. I don't have any gas checks but I am sure we can work something out if you really need some. I can even spray powder coat them if you like.

If you decide to load .454", pick up a .452" expander ball for your belling die. Otherwise, the brass case will swage your
.454" bullet to .450". Expander balls are typically .002" smaller than the bullet you intend to seat.

FWIW: Seems that there are differences in the gas checks used on plain base projectiles, also a "watchit" on using Lee Sizer Dies and Gas Checks ...

I am following this as I load .45LC and am always interested in finding good sources of reasonably priced projectiles (also pleased to help a fellow ODT'er make a buck or two!)

There's a current ad for some 300 gr leads that may be interesting to you. Amazingjoe.
