I've been busy this morning! - Rick Mulhern - 02-09-2013
Got up at 0330 hrs., made coffee, worked the crossword puzzle in the local 'azz-wipe special' and then went to the Bears Den and whipped these out in 2 1/2 hrs. Most accurate bullet I've found yet shooting through my Shiloh 45 2 7/8. These are @ 1-40 alloy! Dry wrap with Seth Cole paper @ 0.0018" thickness takes them to .451" final diameter and they slide in the chamber like a good fitting glove. Can feel the paper sliding in the lands going forward into full battery.
530 gr. BACO Paper Patch @ 1-40 alloy, .446" as cast diameter.

Good looking bullet Rick! I use a .441 Baco with 9 # onion skin paper in my 2 7/8th! I believe the nose of my bullet is a little different though! Cast in pure lead it weights around 549.

Rick is that BACO's standard nose shape or one of the money bullet varieties?
RE: I've been busy this morning! - Old Jim - 02-11-2013
Don, that nose shape appears very close in profile to the BACO (greaser) money bullet nose I've been tryin' out!
'course, I have been wrong ... before .... once.

I ordered the BACO PP Money Bullet so I guess that's their standard issue for it!
