Ah, in the old list it was a 290 grain HP (512139) the 340 grain version was 512198. The 340 grain version is now in the latest catalog as 515139.

I've cast enough bullets with the 515139 to know that it is around 350 grains depending some on alloy.  Works great in the 56-50 Spencer, 50 caliber Maynard, 50 cal. and rolling block Army pistol.   I am also using it for reduced recoil is several 50-70 carbines.   Great mould!  According to the Lyman Cast Bullet handbook it is still in production, or at least it was when that was printed.
