I cast these up today. .44 Lyman Devastator hollow point bullets, for use in my .44 levergun on the piggies. I reckon they'll make a fair PLOP when they hit.

What is the weight Fen ?

Fen,

They look awesome.


I still have the 44 Magnum ammo for you, must catch up sometime.

Have not weighed them but they should drop out of the mould at 250-260gr out of wheel weights. Gas checked and ready to load they should be around 270gr.

Yes Nigel, for sure.

Interested in reading a field test on how they perform on game.
I guess if they don't perform you could always sell them as ash trays or shot glasses.

Nice looking Devastator hollow points.
I have a mate or two that loves to cast. They have just got a new mould in from os that gives you a chose of 3 size hollow points. I have about 300 Devastator hollow point bullets that they did for me.

Here is a not as good as your picture of a lubed Devastator and 4 samples of what the new mould will do.
Note that the large holes are pentagon shaped.

Ouch

They look awesome Fenring

i have a 1 off CBE mold for a 185gr flat nose .44-40 no gas check
required...... works a treat, load= 8.5 gr of unique shotgun powder

I still have some 250gn Barnes .458 cal pills with a hollow point I could put my 6mm pills into. They worked pretty good at 3000 fps out of my 458 Lott. Friends nicknamed it the flying ashtray. It was pretty impressive on cats front on.

They have hurt written all over them

Nice ''bling'' pics too.

I want a 44 mag now. Damn you Fenring, Damn you!!!!

Live the dream, mate.

Hey Fenring do the mini parachutes... I mean big hollow points slow them down more???

Don't matter much at the average range I swat pigs. Guess I could fill up the hole with some Silastic.
