Sir Bob has a good discussion at his blog, entitled: "Some 300gr to 500gr/.458-cal Bullets Analysed and Compared"

I found some images of special interest.
"Bobbed Bullets, Ltd." (not Bubba, not Bobbuh, just Bobbed) is henceforth the name
of the up and coming bullet maker with no proprietary secrets.

Sir Bob bobbed a 450-gr A-Frame to make a 402-gr X-A-Frame FNSN that worked through his Marlin 1895.

Below is his interesting lineup with a bullet I cannot identify, the brass or bronze-jacketed RN FMJ,
that looks like a heavier version of the Thompson Center Bone Crusher 400-grainer:

Second from left in the long row above, middle one in the three below:

Who is the maker of the Bone Crusher type of FMJ round noses ?
Bob did not identify it in his blog notes.
The top bullet of the three above is said to be a 600-gr Barnes,
with a cannelure and an ogive I have never seen on the 600-gr/.458-cal Barnes Originals.
Maybe Sir Bob will enlighten me, or sumbuddy who know ?
