This was a friend's Demas 577 double. Mine isn't here yet. The gun I loaded for is not close by so I can't chrono the loads anytime soon. The moulds I used were Veral Smith's LBT that I had him make for me. I have 450,650 and 750 grain moulds. All with the long flat nose. I plan on getting a 550 grain made also. Veral's moulds are very fairly priced for the quality you get. He will make just about anything you want. I did load some of the 450 grain bullets in this 577 but had some ignition problems. Need to crimp bullets better with that square bullet, not much to hang on to. With the 450 grain I used the same powder charge and they shot into the same groups baring a Kur-thunk.
