Anyone make a heavy 223 cast boolit mold?

[wellfedirishman]

Does anyone sell a heavy (65+ grain) cast boolit mold?

I looked online at Midway, Midsouth, etc. and can only see 45 grain and 55 grain cast boolit molds from Lyman, RCBS, and Lee (the Bator mold at Midsouth).

Any other options? I'd like to try some heavy 223 boolits with a pistol powder load and see how they do.

NEI (http://www.neihandtools.com/catalog/index.html)has the 224-72-GC-DD which, as the name implies, is over 70 grains.

Thanks Tracy. That one looks interesting all right, but the mold is pretty pricey.

Does anyone have any of these boolits they'd like to trade or sell?

I have a couple of the heavyish group buy molds at about 65 and 75gn.
Going through some old gun show stock a couple days ago I found 1 last box of those heavy NEI's too. I no longer have the NEI mold though, I sold it to Deputy al.

Just a thought, do you have to have a grease groove gas check type mold? You might be able to pick up a second hand mold and ask some one to remove the grooves and gas check rebate for you.

I have made a 70gr smooth sided mold. For lubing I rolled the castings between two files and hot dipped them. I never did take any to the range. I have 303 Brits to play with![smilie=1:

This one is a swaged 55gr from a casting like the one above it. It shows the file knurling.

This (I think) is the 70gr boolit intended for paper patching. (Too small to handle so I gave up the idea).
