Where could I get a SWC or WC sized .432" bullet? BHN 12 or less is most desired.
Open to coated, lubed or unlubed.
I sent my Ruger 44 mag BH cylinder to DougGuy and once the throats got pinned out, I had two big throats and four smaller ones, honing the cylinder to where they are all even results in the need for a .432 bullet.
Montana Bullets appears to have the size and I will be calling them regarding availability of a softer BHN/lube.
Edit: MB has nothing < 15 BHN
Meanwhile any suggestions to other sources, commercial or hand casters, will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I'd probably just pick the profile and weight I liked from Montana Bullet Works, order 100, and see how they run. When I bought my first 475 I bought a bunch of 400-grainers from MBW... ran some of them dreadfully slow, and didn't have a lick of leading, despite their 22 BHN hardness rating.
Made me a believer in the importance of bullet fit.

Check with GT bullets. I think Rim Rock might do it also.

Rimrock does offer custom sizing.

I've got a new NOE mold that throws .432" diameter bullets, nominally, that I have no use for. I bought it for a Winchester 94 that I had at the time, and never used it. Shoot me a message if you're interested in it. It's a nominal 240-250 Keith SWC.
