The right hand side second from the bottom are Lee REAL Rifling engraved at loading Hence REAL
They are for muzzleloaders
What do they weigh ?
Lube them, stuff in 40 grains of FFG ...
Well it's unlikely to be 1:40 shown that way.
So my pick is 270 grain conical with a 40 grain load of FFG
Seems a light load so might have been set up to the requirements of who ever ordered it...
.45 round ball is 138 grains
.50 round ball is 178 grains my hunting conicals are more than twice the weight of the round balls

You don't need to size muzzleloader projectiles
The conicals driving bands are smaller at the heel and their diameter increases towards the front of the projectile.
Thats so you can start...
Well it looks like a cross over light conical and ball muzzleloader
If you can find a mold I can cast you anything
You need to use pure lead
Don't try wheel weights or stuff like that as too...
