A newer, RCBS 45-270 SSA.

Looking forward to this one. I have been gifted a batch if these in a deep HP and I like them. Its not one I see often. A friend is "thinning the herd" and I grabbed this, another RCBS 30-180 fn and a LEE 93g soup can. All with handles.

Should have in a week or so.

The 45-270-SAA is about my favorite 45 Colt mould/bullet. My RCBS mould cast about 285 grains. I like this mould enough that I picked up a NOE 5 cavity clone when they were offered.

I use the NOE 452424 and like it. The 270 SAA would be fine as well, I just don’t own one and don't see a need to use more lead. Never had a can or target walk away from a solid hit,

Targets and Cans dont shoot back or Stomp, bite or stab you either!!

I didnt measure as cast.... But my Powder coated was .458/59!!!!!!

I sized to .454 easily on the APP.


This was eastwood powdercoat so its a bit thicker then my usual. So Im gonna guess .454/55 as cast my alloy.
