Top left of the page you select a bullet diameter from the drop-down list and then hit go. It is listed under .458 diameter, 1st one.

I was going to get a Collar Button mould until I started shooting round balls in my Buffalo Classic. Does the same thing I would suspect.

Like the difference between BB's and pellets in an air rifle.

I have shot the old Lyman collar button, couldn't tell the difference in my rifle but that may just be my rifle.

Lyman 457130 145 gr. is the one I'm talking about. Not trying to dissuade you from shooting the collar button I think they are a great bullet go for it, that's what it's all about. Post some results if you get the chance.

I've shot the Lyman CB from Western Bullet before.  Bout an 1-1.5" group at 50 yards.

That's good shooting was that from a BC? When I get the chance I'll have to bench rest mine and see what I can do with the round ball. Minute of rabbit and squirrel is all I've done so far, I've probably made 50 yd. kills but never measured and don't know if the group would have been as good as yours. Can'e even remember the load data, must have it around some where.

Western used to list data for the CB, but no longer does, they still sell the bullets tho, here's the data.

Dense me,

I thought you ment collar button as in lapel pin, didn't know what a collar button is. Looks like a souped up pellet. I was thinking lead soilders or such.

I'm still trying to find the time to load some up with Trailboss.  The loads I was firing were 15 gr Pyrodex under cornmeal to fill the case. Never chronied (figured the cornmeal would be bad for the chrony) but really doubt they were as fast ass any of those loads Quick put up.
