He sure is. He has a sub-forum (Ask Veral (http://www.go2gbo.com/forums/index.php?board=114.0)) on Graybeard Outdoors.

Jim, I believe the answer to your question is, Yes.

The last address I have for him is Lead Bullet Technology, HCR 62 Box 145, Moyie Springs, Id. 83845 Sorry, no phone #, but he does take and answer questions on the Graybeard Outdoors forum.

I think Bruce - BABore - here in this forum is out of business, which is bad news.

Great guy to talk with and great molds.

I think if you look on the member list, you can probably send Bruce a PM if you have questions.

Last contact I had, sounded like he still has some molds on hand.

I should probably see if he has a 4 cav. in .44 at something less then 300gr. I have an LBT 310, but have thought about droping down into the 200gr range, as long as it has a WFN.

By the way, I do have an LBT 355gr mold, 4 cavity for the 45/70, gas check, that I could be talked out of.

Throat is really short on my #1 and that boolit doesn't chamber well as well as not giving me the groups I want or am presently getting from the mold Bruce made me.

Keep em coming!

2 PMs sent. What price would talk you out of the mold? What style of bullets are they?

ohiochuck, The quality of LBT molds is outstanding. They are the only Al molds I own which require NO smoking in order to get perfect fill-out + the CB's virtually drop from the cavity with little effort on my part. (They do like to be run hot though, ~800 deg. F at first though.) Since they're cut to your specs., they cast extremely accurate bullets too.

Agree 100 percent. I will never order a mold with "sharp" corners, no matter what it is made out of. ... felix

Awhile back Veral was doing molds here in the group buy section. If you PM him from here maybe you can save a little money.
