I took a bore slug and sent it with the data. I wanted a bullet that would load to the same OAL as the Woodleigh so front of crimp groove to meplat was same as front of Woodleigh cannelure to nose. Meplat of .190. Radiused to bore riding dia over .250 so it would engage in bore upon chambering but wouldn't de-bullet if ejected. Gas check groove cut to allow the use of 44 cal GC. Drive bands to be .4245 so only 1/2 thou sizing to .424.

I also wanted a bullet that would be usable for light game hunting as well. Seems to have worked quite well on paper so I know it will go where I point it.

(edit to add captions) the first pic of bullets is 350 @ 400 Woodleigh soft + solid.
350RWS soft and 400 solid.
My 350gn GC Lino
Eagle 27's 400gn PB
Barnes 350 @400 + 400 TS.

Second pic is Kynock soft and solid.
My 350gn and Eagle 27's 400gn
