True. My standard .44 mag load is my cast 250 gr SWC pushed by 20 grains of 2400) Elmer's bullet was 250 gr SWC with 3 equal sized square driving bands.
Not many molds out there that cast a true Elmer bullet. Cuz the square lube groves and square driving band are sometimes hard to eject from the mold.
Therefore the mold makers rounded of all the square corners and their front driving band is smaller than the other 2.
