If you're going to cast your own, get a Lyman 457121PH mould and use nothing harder than a 20:1 alloy. Drops a 475gr bullet that is great for targets and hunting out as far as you're comfortable shooting.

Lee makes a mould for the hollow-base 405gr Calvary Carbine bullet, it's the 90268.

Some folks like the 330gr Gould's Bullet. It's a hollow point design. My Shiloh doesn't care for bullets that light so I stick with the 457121PH or heavier.
