And, Veral feels the same way about bore riding bullets that Elmer Keith felt about gas checks. A friend of mine just received an LBT 30 cal. mould that he and Veral talked long and hard about for awhile. After getting all the current bore & throat dimensions communicated back & forth, Tom will be throating the barrel to match his new mould. Tom asked, Veral explained, they talked, and the barrel will be getting fit to the bullet. I can hardly wait for this one, I've always wanted to do this myself. There really are no "stock" LBT moulds, especially for rifles. Each one is specifically set up for a specific set of unique specifications. You can order moulds to fit your stock throating, but it really does require a throat slug to get proper fit.
