What about a WC mould in standard .30 cal.?

I'd like to see a mould that would do a standard .311-.313 diameter WW boolet.

Why?
.30 carbine Ruger Blackhawk
.32 H&R Mag Dan Wesson
.308/30-06/.300Savage etc. for squirrels/cans

Am I missing something out there? I've seen some commercial DE WC's but not moulds.

RCBS lists a mold for a 98 grain wadcutter boolit as a regular production item, and I think Lee has a tumble-lube boolit of similar weight.

Lee's little soup can, 113 fp works good in my guns from 1000 fps to 2400 and I have heard that it can be pushed faster. This seens to be a smaller version of my lbt 180 fn. Gianni.

Lee has a six holer .314 85 grain WC in their Surplus stuff for $25. I own one and would be glad to send samples.

Might make a decent squirrel load.

The RCBS one is a good bullet in the WC design....2.0 grains of Bullseye was accurate in a .32 mag of mine.
