RE: 457132
Don I'm not going to flame you for your thoughts on the 132.
I have always said that the 132 is the one bullet I would use if I could only get one mould. It is good in any of the .45 caliber rifles I have shot it in from the slower ROT the Trapdoors have to the 1/18 the rest of my rifles have.
I also agree the 475 grain would be a good one to go with.
If you ever see an old 132 Ideal mould you will see that the base band is a lot thinner than what you see now in any of the postell moulds.
I will also add one more Ideal mould if I may Don.
The second mould I would add is the .457-121. I can’t figure why Lyman is making it in the .456" diameter. The first 121 mould I had was .458". And that original .457-121 came adjustable for the 215g, 250g, 295g, 340g, 385g, 430g, 475g depending on what base band you set it for. I have a picture of this adjustable mould if I still have it my back up. My computer crashed over the weekend and I lost whatever I did not have backed up.
