This 95-100 gr. is a little hefty but being slick cast I have high hopes. The B.C. is good so it should shoot flat'ish, anyway. I also have a 6mm Ackley which it should be perfect. Sage has gas checks in smaller quantities so I don't have to by in the thousands. I bought the H&I sizer off Ebay for $10.50 delivered. Now if I can just figure out what "top punch" it needs. I fight the Lyman 450. I'm the world champion bullet bender and shaver! I have a .44 cal. #303 top punch for a pointy that I find very useful for most universal pointy slugs. Anyone have a fuzzy idea which top punch the chart calls for (#245498), I can't find it anywhere? Not many cast for .243. Maybe the RCBS that is close?

Wouldnt it be #498?

Last three of the mold number. Only been able to locate one on a European website. Some of the mold makers might be able to make you one or have it on hand.

Can't find a #496, 497, 498... hen's teeth.

Might see if any profiles match, or contact them, they might have the proper one just not sell them as that number.

Good idea, RCBS has one available.

according to a old lyman/ideal mould chart from the late 1950's the top punch is a #498
