Anyone know where one might get round ball moulds in sizes not currently offered by Lyman or Lee?

I'm looking for about a .585, maybe .590

Understand one may be had from Jeff Tanner, I was just hoping to find something with integral sprue cutter.

Ray Pine & his moulds seem to have vanished from this earth.

Maybe this will put you on the right track. Find this thread with the search function- Mihec 56 cal round ball -. If you cant find it there , click on my user name , then hit statistics, then find all posts. That will also get you there. Miha Previa is getting together orders for round ball molds, with - sprue cutters. I have put my bid in for two .585 molds. I think he needs 5 of the same diameter to make the order viable. If you stick around long enough here you will see that Mihec molds are top shelf. I have 3 of his Cramer style molds. I saw you post in the for sale saection on ALR. You must have one of Getz's .60 cal barrels. So do I.

Good morning
Unless they have changed DIXIE in Tennesee has had RB molds listed in thier fine cataloge that increment in size by by a narrow margin.. I have bought over the years some odd sizes.
The finish and construction of the molds is not the greatest but they shoot fine out to the distances I hunt in the river bottoms.

That is exactly what crossed my mind when I first read his post....Ray Pine & Rapine is certainly close in pronunciation, although I'm not sure that is exactly what he meant, it just registered that way with me too.
