DOES ANYONE HAVE A SOURCE FOR STOP RING BULLETS - OR A MOLD FOR A STOP-RING BULLET. I'm wanting to shoot my Mauser wehrmannsgewehr.

It would help if I/we knew what a "stop ring bullet" was.

Photo/drawing?

The cheap way out would be to send Eric Holder a commercial mold and have him take one of the middle bands out to the diameter that you specify. He charges a flat rate for enlarging a band.

I have seen a Paul Jones .32 caliber stop ring mould. You might check with him and see if he still offers them.

I agree, I won't be buying any NEI products. I sent emails that were not answered, and when I called I got a lot of meaningless double-talk.

I did find that Buffalo Arms had both Stop-Ring Bullets and bullet molds, in stock for the Wehrmannsgewehr.

Have Erik @ hp mold service open up a band n a standard bullet for you on his CNC mill.His work is unreal and the turnaround time usually less than a week.

keep us posted on the results.i had a 308282 Ideal Armory Mold "stop ring design" that didn't do very well for me but maybe it was the rifles throating.
