Before I buy a mold I would like to try some of these for my 45-70 rifle. I have boolits for 9mm, 32acp, 45 acp, to trade. Some commercial cast 38s also.

How many of each weight?

The ones I do are all PC'd and sized to .460 and those are GC'd which a person can take to full thumper loads easily.

Those sound great. What can you spare?
What do you want for them? I can trade processed lead too. COWW OR SOWW OR RANGE SCRAP.

Oh let's just say if you tried to pick up what I have you'll definately give yourself a hernia.

Just give me numbers instead of questions and we'll go from there. I have both the 350 and 405gr which are both NOE.

And COWW should more than suffice, in ingot form that is. I've had folks send me actual COWW in raw form, sheesh.

Is 30 ea too much? Tell me what that would be in COWW ingots. Joe

To me too much is a couple hundred of each, then we would be having a serious discussion.

30pcs of each to me is nothing, but as much of a tight you know what as I am I'll send you 50 of each.

And to help you a bit I'll send you a few of the Collar Button boolits from the NOE mould as well. Those are used for what folks call "gallery loads" and if you use 10gr of Unique the recoil is super mild and they go just under 1k FPS.

Let me do the figuring as far as how much COWW I would like. It wont be more than a Bazillion pounds I can say that, but it'll be more than eleventy pounds.

Holy Smokes..... Those got there in record time.

Just be mindful when loading those collar button boolits. 10grs of Unique does the trick, it's not a position sensitive powder. If you try and substitute another powder it may be position sensitive.

Anyway..... Have fun with them, you have enough to find out how well (or how bad) the NOE boolits work for what you own.

Tried your 350s today over trials of Unique. Really light recoil and although only shot at 50 yds so far a 0.75 CTC GROUP looked pretty nice! Looking forward to trying it out farther since I was just getting the scope setup today.

I rested my rifle when I was sighting in, and at 100yds I was connecting the dots. I would need to open my book on my loads but I use 3031 at various weights where I am. When I load mine over 1500FPS it gets kinda dangerous at both ends.
