CLOSED: REMAKE - MP Molds - 44 MAG Hollow Base Wadcutter

CLOSED
Because this is a repeat mold, Miha has graciously decided to proceed with machining these molds.
So, this group buy is now moved to the closed area. If you were on the fence about this one, please get in now. While Miha will likely make a few extras, you shouldn't just hope to get one that way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 2010, a LONG 8 years ago, and again in 2014, Miha offered this 44 magnum sized Hollow Base Wadcutter mold, and it sold out pretty quickly. People are still asking for this mold, and Miha's all set to run it again. He has the cherry in inventory to cut cavities. I made a horrible mistake a number of years ago, and sold my mold to one of the CB members. I have regretted it ever since.
It will be a brass mold in two different cavity configurations, a two cavity mold and a four cavity mold. Since this is technically a "nose pour" mold, it's classified as a Hollow Point design with Cramer style pins. Therefore the minimum quantify for a "GO" on this buy is 25 molds. However, there is only ONE pin set for the mold, do NOT ask for custom pins sets. Discounted Group Buy price is 80.75 Euros for the 2 cavity version, and 114.75 Euros for the 4 cavity version For reference, this mold number is 432-395. Miha includes a top punch, and a sample of his special sprue plate lube, and an allen key, all at no additional charge.

I'll need your info:
1) CB Screen Name
2) Quantity of this mold that you desire
3) Disguised email address for invoicing purposes when the molds are ready
4) Your ZIP CODE so that we can advise when molds are shipped (you'll be able to see that your mold is on the way)
5) DHL shipping (three days door to door) is available on this buy IF you desire that option, it will be an additional 6 Euros added to your invoice, $6.83 (US) cost. Please advise, therefore, if you want to pay extra for the DHL shipping. Otherwise, anyone not specifying DHL shipping will have their molds shipped in the normal Postal System way, shipping is free with the mold for normal postal service shipping. Hope that's clear enough.
6) If you buy a handle with this mold, Miha will offer the discounted $20 Euros for the handle set, and the handle will ship with the mold. So, please advise if you want a handle with your order.

What weight bullet is this? I'm interested in it for my 44-40 henry rifle as a target load.

Duke- according to my question of Miha on Sunday, he stated he could put 4-cav on an HP for 45-70. So I would think this 44 would be no problem for 4-cav and would get you to the required 100 pins, faster. I'd jump on this one, if it were 4-cav

All of these calibers have been run more recently than 2010, and in 4C too. I have the whole set.
'Not saying it wouldn't be good to run them again, but they can be done in 4C if wanted.

Thanks for a link I could not find.
Awaiting Miha's reply to the four cavity options for the bigger ones.
His own site only shows these molds in my presented configurations.
I did, inadvertently, leave out the 45 caliber version, which I will add now.

If he blesses the 4 cavity blocks for the bigger molds, then I'll need to get some pricing from him.

According to the drawing that I have, the hollow base version is 235 grains. I'm awaiting confirmation from Miha that he will also offer the plain base pin, which in solid seems to be a 275 grain boolit.

Dukeinflordia, Once you et the details firmed up I'm me I'm definitely interested in one. Pm to Follow

PM received, and replied to. I'll contact you when we get the final details worked out.

We (honchos) seem to have overwhelmed Miha with our detailed questions. He's used to just focusing on making molds, and getting them out quickly. We are forcing him to also be a good manager of details.

Need some help. No stranger to casting but know nothing about this custom mold stuff. Ist question is how much is a Euro? Second question. This 44 HBWC is not a GC bullet, right?
Guidence will be appreciated.

A EURO is the common money in Europe. The value of one (relative to a US dollar) varies daily, although it doesn't really vary all that much. Since MP-Molds is in Slovenia, Miha does his billing in EUROS. If you pay the invoice through PayPal, then PayPal does the exchange rate automatically, and you will actually pay in US dollars.
Here's a link for the exchange rate from EUROS to dollars
Currently, a EURO is $ 1.1754 dollars.

This bullet is a "nose pour" style bullet, meaning that the normal Hollow Point (which is on the nose of the bullet) in this instance becomes the rear of the bullet. Because the rear of the bullet is HOLLOW, a gas check would not work.

Do you want a two cavity mold? Or, a four cavity mold? Those are the only two options.
So, the Lyman 4 cavity handles DO NOT fit these molds. The LEE four cavity handles DO FIT. I've never had any RCBS handles, so I am not sure on those. The difference is mostly the THICKNESS of the metal part where it fits into the slots on the sides of the molds. These molds require something the same thickness as a LEE handle set.

With regard to the "disguised email address". . . . There are dangerous "BOTS" roaming web sites, looking to lift (steal) data such as email addresses. They can use those email addresses to send out viruses, etc. So, as an attempt to foil the bots, we ask that you modify your email address slightly. The @ symbol becomes the word, "AT". And the period (.) in front of your email provider information becomes a "DOT"

So, if your email address was somebody@somewhere.com, you would post your email address as: somebody AT somewhere DOT com
Hopefully, the bots are dumb enough to not glean your email address, and you won't get deluged with trash. Hope that helps you and others who were confused about the nature of a disguised email address.
