You may well get a lot of different answers, but I use just two molds in the .45-70. One is the Lee 459-500-3R, a pointed 500 grain bullet that I use in the Sharps for BP shooting. The other bullet is also a Lee mold, the 457-405F. This is a 405 grain flat pointed bullet that I use for smokeless loads in my Handi rifle. I push it to about 1500 fps and it works well on our smallish whitetail deer.
