Lee 459-405-HB - Anyone have pix?
« on: May 19, 2013, 02:08:40 PM »
I see two different images for the Lee 459-405-HB bullet mold on thier site. Anyone have a photo of the actual bullet that comes out of that mold?

One image looks rather like a Kieth type ogive and flat top, the other appears to be almost a round nose profile?

Somewhat round nosed, with a big flat on the end because it is a nose pour design. Wonderful bullet in every 45-70 I have tried it in when launched by black powder.
