Re: Possible .45 paper patched mold
OK, got the dimensions (published by Lee) from Slowpoke on another thread. New drawings tonight.

For densities of alloy should I post the weight?
From Dutch's post of years past on Shooters.com I have the densities of the common 20:1 and 10:1 (and other ratios as well). My previously used density for WW doesn't quite jive with them though.

Almost done.

This shows the correct tumble lube grooves, 3 degree taper on the nose for easy drop out of mould and approximately 400gr in weight.

Fine tuning? Now is the time.

Tolerances need to be added. Lee promises to hold .003" range; so diameters need to be specified to design size and either +.003 or -.003 depending on what we want to see.

Ed - I think it's getting close to getting a head-count on who wants 'em.
