.45 black powder bullet

[meaux308]

I am a fan of the sidelock muzzleloaders. I have a T/C .45 hawken but due to inlines and many southern states now allowing single shot rifles the .45 is dying quickly. Buffalo Bullet from my knowledge is dead and Hornady Great Plains is no longer available. Only thing I can find is the Maxi-ball. I have harvested deer with all of the previous mentioned bullets and the buffalo does great. I am looking for a solution to this ordeal. I have two of the 325 grain .45 Flat Base Hollow Point bullets and a box of the 275 grain Hollow Base Hollow Point buffalo bullets. I also have some great plains but where may I find a mold to begin casting such bullets. Or how or who can I send one of these bullets off to to make a mold so I may keep a steady diet of ammo for my hawken. Would anyone have any suggestions? I am starting into casting and loading for my 45 acp... and ready to expand my self supply of bullets.

Lyman makes the 245 grain Maxi Ball mold which claims to be designed for your T/C: http://www.lymanproducts.com/lyman/bullet-casting/mould-details-blackpowder.php?entryID=84

Lee has their own take on the concept: http://leeprecision.com/mold-d-c-45cal-250.html

I have available, which I am not using, a double cavity Saeco .45 cal. Maxiball mold, which is based on the T/C design and weighs 230 grains in pure lead. I'll ship the blocks only in a SFRB for $50, US Postal Money Order. I have not listed this anywhere else.
