I poured up a whole bunch of them a while back out of straight WW and a few more out of straight iso core alloy from the large cores (1/3/96), and have been slowly working on them a few here and there. I use 5 to 5.5grs of Unique under them with the 45/45/10 lube over Wolf LP primers.

I haven't really messed with actually working up an accuracy load however they are simply blasting rounds to keep the trigger finger active. They will however stay within a snuff can sized group at 20yds if I really bear down.

I also run them through the .452 sizer just to keep em honest and round. Some it hardly touches and some you can see a slight bit of shiny on them.

I have a couple of other TL molds in other calibers as well like 38/357, 41, and 45, and I have poured up and shot some of each they all shoot good.
