I am needing to decide on a suitable mold for my MSR in 358 Winchester. I have had good success with the Lee 2-cavity clone of the RCBS 200gn but the quality of the mold and the lack of available RCBS molds made a custom mold from Accurate an easy choice.
Looking at the catalog I see in the notes for the above mold that it is inspired by the RCBS design but will tweak some dimensions to compensate for the added diameter that powder coating creates.
I like large meplat designs as my intended loads must be suitable for hunting but the feed ramps of the barrel extension won't allow much more than the .2" of this design. I did enlarge and polish the extension of my Wilson Combat barrel to smoothly feed the Lee cast bullets.
Any other suggestions or experiences?
