anyone have this mold im looking to see what the diam is i know the top band should be around .468 but what are the other 2

my idea is to use it as a heel based bullet in a .45 colt case for my martini henry( with my new adapter)
 
Have a 3 band LEE r.e.a.l. mold. cast from pure lead, it casts top band.468 center band .463 bottom band .458. IF the sizes were reversed,it might work but the slug cast as is,will not. I size them to .454 and load them in colt 45 cases and shoot them in a KIRST CONVERSION cylinder in a RUGER OLD ARMY. THEY DO WORK FINE,cast as is in the original ruger cylinder over 30 gr. fffg.
 
cool thanks im going to have to look for one now the .468" top bad should work ok and i could lap out the middle band to be near the same size down the rear band some how and i'll have a .470 colt :p

the rear band will work as a heel and the other 2 will grip the rifling perfict in the martini henry
