Default Hensley & Gibbs #260

Any readers have experience with bullets cast from the H&G #260 mould pattern?
I'm curious because a good friend of mine gave about 100 of them and before I load them up I'd like to have a little idea of what to expect.

Comments?

Talking It'll shoot good I bet!

One thing for sure, they are going to be good bullets. It's hard to ruin one that comes from an H&G mould, at least in my opinion!

I have a #290BB mould that I love dearly. It is a 4 cavity and casts like a dream.
Here is a picture of one like mine:



I use regular 158gr data with mine, even though they cast at 162gr from my alloy.

We want to have a range report with pictures!
