Hello Al

I have a Freedom Arms 83 Premier 7.5" .454
I use the RCBS 300 swc-gc in it with a compressed load of W-296 ,for almost 1800 FPS and unbelievable accuracy.
Killed an Antelope in Wy. with it last year @ 70 Yards.
The front driving band on it is not wide enough to call it a Keith bullet and you may not need the Gas Checks for 1000 Fps.
For lighter loads I use the RCBS 270 - SAA.
It was recently designed by Dave Scovil.
A lot of folks call it a slightly improved Keith bullet.
It is a humndinger.
From my double cavity blocks and 16 to 1 alloy bullets drop at 283 grn.
That's the only two in the weight range you want I have used.
I'm sure there's others.
I may bid on the Lyman HP if it's not over $90 in the last few seconds of auction .
