I'm seeing what I think is the same mold being called by two different names. Is there a FN version? Mine says 'SP' on the mold and RCBS box.
RCBS 22-55-SP or 22-55-FN?

The custom Flat nose version will cast @ .228 diameter and weighs 60grs. It is a different design bullet than the more common 55gr SP.

I wonder why the FN costs over 50% more than the SP. That is quite a difference. John

John, looks like a limited production for the 22 Savage Hi-Power. They USED to make a 22-055-FN, but dropped it for the 22-055-SP. I have the old FN and it shoots great.

Thanks Glenn. That makes sense. I also have a mold for the old 22-055-FN but haven't used it much. I should try it more seriously in my 222 with the 14” twists. John

hi john, i have a ppg reamer for 222; separate throaters; then you could make that 450 fit just right.
does tight fit matter ? another data dot.
