I would think the second one is this:
LYMAN 45cal 480gr #4576580 -
The Harvey Protexbore is an unlubricated naked lead bullet with a zinc washer cast in place on the base to serve as a gas check and fouling scraper. It works fine if you have the zinc washers to match your groove diameter, poorly if not. I once took some of them in trade and was only able to use them by coating with one or another brand of dip lube. 0 -
The DV denotes the subcontractor on the Lyman mold, I believe. 0 -
The Harvey mould may have decent value to a collector, but not as a usable mould. The Lyman is intended for 45-70 or 45-90 cartridges. 0
