    Took a two cavity lee mold 429 240gc and lee mentented it out to .432 and removed the shoulder for the gas check. The two on the right are 253 gr. The two on the left are checked with sage outdoors plain base. They run 255 gr. Don't really plan on checking them just had some sitting around an thought I'd see how they work.
