Funny you ask..Not to long ago I worked up there 430 grain Lazer Cast.I didn't expect the results I got.I am impressed.I had a problem getting there crimp groove not to suck up the brass but finally backed off to 1/2 turn on the Lee crimp for a slightly longer OAL.

Edited to add what I forgot:
Garretts 420 grain Hammerhead had an OAL of 2.537 and the final loads for the Lazer Cast had an OAL of 2.513.


That day in 60 degree weather with Starline Brass/CCI#34 primers and Reloder-7 I got:
Garretts 420 Hammerhead gave me 1839 fps that day out of my Guide Gun as a rough comparison load.
43 grains=1723 fps
44 grains=1769 fps
45 grains=1824 fps
46 grains=1868 fps (As far as I wanted to take it in my Guide Gun)

This bullet is very similar to Buffalo Bores 430 cast from Hunters Supply.
