LFN, WFN Meplat Size
« on: December 12, 2010, 02:53:54 AM »

  Mr. Smith if memory serve the WFN meplat is .090" below bore diameter for the revolver bullets and the LFN is .110" smaller than bore diameter.  Is this correct?


  Thanks

  I have molds that I got from you back in 1986 when I was living in Alaska and LBT Blue lube. Great products

  I had only been cutting molds a few years, back in 1986, but am still using the same patterns as I did then for those two profiles, though I'm producing far finer finish in the cavities and closer tolerances now than then.  The WFN meplat  is .090 smaller than body diameter while the LFN meplat is .125 smaller than body diameter.
