I forgot about the Hawk bullets I bought!! I bought the .446 and they would shade the cast bullets by a bit. Good bullets, I like them. I have quite a few for the 500 BPE and it likes them also.

A couple issues ago there was a pretty good write-up in the DGJ about the 43 Mauser. The author asked for others experience with the cartridge and I was going to write him but never did. Evidently the bore diameter was all over the place for that cartridge.

I see my top two pictures are the same. It's been a few years since I took them and I thought it was right and left side. Chalk it up to turned calander pages....lol!
