Yes, according to Wilson, the truncated cone design will function more reliability in the Luger than round nose bullets. I have found this to be true in my 26 years of Luger shooting. I'm glad that you took the time to design a truncated cone design for your .30, as DWM had such a design in early days.

What is your OAL on your Lyman loads?

Thanks again!!
