Lyman has made a couple of special runs of discontinued molds in the last couple years. They are single cavity only but were nice molds. They were pre-ordered but I can't remember the man's name who set it up but there was a certain minimum wich was met easily. So you may very well get them to run a mold for you.
Shooter, it's not that easy. Lou Sellman in Pittsburgh is a Lyman Distributor. Through him, I was the honcho for the Ideal 457192 (45-75) and 375166 (38-55) remakes from Lyman. Lou needed a minimum number before Lyman would start up the CAD machine and Lou had to buy that minimum number. In addition, he had to PAY Lyman $2700 for 3 cherries but Lou owns the cherries. Also, Lyman had to be supplied with the bullet schematics calculated on 1:20 alloy because they sold them off years ago. If Lou didn't know Mr DeAngelo @ Lyman we would still be wishing for these excellent molds that were made by Ideal ... and we wouldn't have gotten SQUAT from Lyman!
