I got my mold done by Tom at Accurate and I am extremely pleased with this mold (I am pleased with all the molds he has done for me) So I cast a few up, checked weight, gas checked, lubed and checked weight again... I think im going to love shooting these..
These are my new Tombstone Jr's in 44 cal (.432)

and of course my older 458 cal Tombstone's (.460)

Now I need to cast for my 45acp's and 9mm

What green lube are you using on the 44 Tombstone Jrs?

I dont know the make up of it as it was made for me by D Crockett, I have been using it for the 45-70 and have been getting <1" groups at 100yds, others that have been shooting it are getting better then that. I have not tried it in the 44 Mag yet (here's hoping it works as good as in the 45-70) D Crockett makes the lube what ever color I want so I asked for blue, red, green and black (didnt get much black stuff)
