Recently took a chance & bought a used Lee 45 cal 405gr bullet mold from E-Bay. $18.50 with shipping. Cast from scrap bullets from an indoor range. Bullets cast at 398 grs before lubing. On my LBT tested Bn 15. 17.5 grs of IMR SR 4756 with a tuft of Dacron ( about 2 grs ) to hold powder in place over primer. Velocity 1295 fps. Forgot to mention used a Leupold 4X compact scope. Range 102 yds. Win primers , Rem brass. Marlin XLR stainless, 24" Bbl & Ballard deep grove rifling.
