Hello all,
I will be runnin' the 311440 purchase. There seems enough interest to get this going. Talked to Lee Precision today (4-6) to verify cast / lead time. Lead time from payment is 120 days.
Please PM or email for particulars and let's get this thing going.
Price is $56.00 ea

---> Please email or pm me and I will send you my address to mail your check or money order.

Price includes shipping. When we get close to 25 orders ( minimum so we don't get charged $100 setup ) I will set order date.

Brian

Looks like it would be a nice bullet, but I cannot make out the dimensions on the nose diameter, is it larger than the original 311440? I have an old single cavity and nose is way undersized. Would like to order one of the six holers would really increase casting speed.

Nose is spec'd to cast between 0.300" to 0.301" with wheelweights.

Well of course put me down for one.

I love to cast 6 at a time, that means I spend more time shootin than castin!

I just kinad wonder if the name is a "registered trademark" or some such?

Hey guys,
I'm not trying to be difficult here ( but I guess I do tend to ) but this is NOT a 'me to' thread. If you want in then Please just click on my name and send me a pm or email. You don't have to be nice or say anything pleasant. I will send you my address.

As I do receive the checks I will edit the opening post to show the zip codes of the senders.

Just trying to clear confusion and make sure all are included.

I was thinking along the lines of placing the order on 4-28 or 4-29. This will give a chance for all the checks to come in. So it's decision time if you haven't acted yet. If you are mailing in under the wire please let me know so I don't cut anyone off. This order has gone pretty quick and I'm looking forward to putting a lot of these guys down range soon.
Thanks!

I tried to order the moulds this morning. Called lee and was told 'pat' will be back on wednesday. They want to sent me some design sheets. I tried to tell them that I had the design but was told Pat wasn't there. So I will call again on Wednesday. I have orders for 47 moulds but was thinking about placing an order for 50 and I'll cover the other three. I'm sure I will be able to sell them.

...........Brian, ya don't need to call them. Are you gonna pay via CC? If so, attach a cover sheet to the boolit drawing. Say, "I want 50 moulds cut to the attached drawing and my CC # and exp date is XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, 6-07. My phone # is: XXX-XXX-XXXX, my e-mail is: whatever.

Ship to: With your address

And a thank you very much.

Then about 3-4 weeks later you can call them up and ask about the mould order. Then you WILL need Pat there as the nice lady won't know squat.

.............Buckshot

PS: When I had my 8mm mould done I could have ordered 10 more. I've had enquiries still about the 6.5mm and the 3 extra I DID order are gone!

Buckshot,
I called back later that day (monday) and decided that I would just mail the order in with a check. Went out priority mail with delivery confirmation. I gave ph#'s and email in the letter. When I see it was delivered I will call them again to see that all is well. Then we wait... I just might have to find another 30 cal something.
Two of the extra 3 are already spoken for that leaving only one extra. I sure some one will come along.

Brian

05-20-2005, 12:12 AM

Brian

...............If you'd have ordered 10 extra they'd have been gone before Lee even shipped them back to you. I think when Sundog jumped up and did the 6 banger Lee soupcan deal he only had a few guys early on who'd commited. He was going to sell the balance off via Castpics. I really don't remember any of the details but I think they all just disappeared without much effort.

They gots our money, They know what we want, They agreed to make it (the way we want it) and we gots to wait!

I was going to give it a while and see if we are on the horizon or not. Probably call after the holiday. This is really the most difficult part of the deal.

Well since I now know a little more about casting than I did when this GB was in process, I would like to have one of these molds should any extras or change of minds happen. Just wanted to make all aware of my desires and apologize for not knowing any better to get in on the buy in the first place.
thanks
