Heh, got my Buffalo Arms cases made from Starline .50-90 brass, and rummaging around found one example of the Lee 405-grain HB left from when I had that mould. So I sized it to .459, lubed with SPG, drop-tubed 60 grains of Goex FFg into the case, added a John King veggie wad, seated that slug to the top band and gave her a nice crimp. Dang this makes up a handsome bottle-necked round!
I see Roosterman claims fine accuracy with this Lee bullet in his .45-60, so I will likely need to buy this mould again. How many here have more than once sold or traded a mould only to find they need it?
:P

Found a feller willing to turn loose of his Lee 459-405 HB mold, so will have more ammo soon. Boy just about everyone is out of Lee molds right now!
