Just received a near-new mold for this bullet. Anyone use this in their auto? How about 45 Colt?
I did a short search and found this mold came out in the early 1990's, so there may not be any wide-spread usage.
I needed this mold like another hole-in-the-head, but as always, FREE is a magic word to me!
I plan to use this bullet as I do the #452460, so it may not get too much use. . . . especially in the 45 Colt. --Jim

A semi-auto pistol will need to be set up to shoot SWC's. Most new pistols come ready for 'em. Older pistols need the feed ramp to be extended up the sides of the chamber to feed 'em reliably. Isn't a big deal though.
A .45 Colt will eat 'em with no fuss. Be a lightish target load.
Free is always good. Give you trading goods if nothing else.
