My Dad reamed one cavity on a Lee round ball mold so that it made a heel bullet he was playing with.

It loads fairly easily into the Dragoon chamber and though I only shot a few of them yesterday it seems to have potential for great accuracy. And it is about 25 grains heavier than the round .457" round ball.
