Left message in the classifieds too but am looking for a mould Lyman 257325 or similar. 110-117 grain or close, prefer gas check but will consider just about anything. I have a Lyman 89 gr 257312 I believe it is but need something closer to factory Winchester shape and size.
Will buy or consider trade, I have about 50 moulds some I don't use much that I would consider trading for a new or near new 25-35 mould.
Needs to be compatible with tubular magazine, so spire points are out, round or flat point will be just fine.

Thanks for any consideration possible.

Time to get out a fine old rifle and build some boolits.

The Lee C309-113F might do, the mold I have comes out .311 with ww's, just a little beagleing or lapping would make .312 easily, they are about $18 for a 2 cavity mold at Midway.

I also have the C309-113, and mine come out 313 to 314. If you get one and they come out 309 to 310 I'll trade ya.

.44, what you got to swap in 7mm? I think I have the mould you are looking for. Lyman .25 cal RN GC in the 117-120 grain range, anyway. Never shot for me, but I've never had anything with that fast a twist.

The only 7mm mould I have is one I use, its 4 Cavity 145 gr GC. I traded out of the 150 and 160 moulds I had. Not much help for a trade. Is your's single or dual cavity, email me if you might consider selling. I'm not sure of the twist in this Win but factory is 117 so should be ok.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

I have a 257325 in good condition. I bought it new in 1961, cast about a hundred bullets with it, and it has been in heavy grease (Rig) ever since. It is a single cavity.

I am not the least bit interested in selling it, but would consider a trade for something I want. Send me a list of what you are willing to trade and I will see if we can make a swap. PM me and I will send you my email addy.
