Hi all,
I?m looking for an Ideal 540-619A heeled bullet mould.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not familiar with that particular Ideal/Lyman mould but given the diameter and it being a heeled bullet, would it be for .56-56 Spencer? If so you might consider an alternative sold by Buffalo Arms (buffaloarms.com), #539375. I have their mould, it wasn't cheap but it casts a very nice heeled bullet that works well in my M1860 Spencer carbine. They also have the brass for .56-56 Spencer.

Jim, The bullet I?m currently using is a Buffalo Arms 56-56 Spencer with the middle band modified to .540?. It shoots well , but a friend gave me some bullets made from the Lyman mould and it brought my pattern at 100 yards from around 4.5? to less than 3?. So I?d like to do a little more experimenting with it.

Jim , I forgot to mention, the gun I?m using it with is a Gallagher.

Check out Accurate Molds, I bet he makes one. If he does let me know how he did for you. I?ve bought several of his molds all very good.

mgmradio, are you shooting an original Gallager or an Erma repro? The original Gallagers have a .520" bore, the Erma Gallagers shoot the metric equivalent of .54 caliber.

ms3635v, I?m shooting an original 1st model. The grove diameter is between 0.537 and 0.539. . Both the Buffalo arms 56-56 Spencer bullet and this Lyman bullet shoot very well in the gun. The heel of the Lyman bullet fits the cartridges better than the Spencer, that is why I am looking for one.

Would this .545 heeled Sharps bullet work for you?
