With the NF softs, TSXs and Woodleighs I use 52gr to attain 2250 fps and also great accuracy. If I had to stick with one bullet, I'd opt for the TSX, Very accurate, great penetration and it was designed for the 405. I also use a Lee factory crimp die i had made. Cr, I'd like to see that N133 pressure data as well as NF loading tips. Incidentally, it was you CR that turned me onto N-133 and it is also the cleanest powder I've ever used!


I totally agree with jorge on the TSX although the NF solids grouped the best of the three I load tested [ NF,Woodleigh & TSX ] the TSX was second overall but the price per shot vs the others was certainly a no brainer IMO.

In addition I'm glad to see the 405 making a comeback it certainly deserves more attention especially with modern powders and bullets...Ole Teddy would be proud !
