Lapua is, in my opinion, the best brass out there. Not cheap, but I have yet to have a case split or otherwise have to be discarded. The cases seem a little thicker than most but the uniformity is...

I just got a refund last month after ordering a mould back in spring of 2013. I was told that it was always just a matter of a few weeks away. Finally had the mould made elsewhere and asked for a...

Would it be possible to get a 4-cav w/ 2 RN and 2 FN?
First class and worth twice the price. I think I bought something like $2k worth of moulds from him last year and I can't thing of a single bad thing to say about his product or service.

Ah, very well then. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I have a very stupid question. I've never dealt with this particular mould maker before, and today my email dropped a request through PayPal for 100 Euros to "Mp Kalupi d.o.o." for a .314 mould. I'm...

I'll take one at .314. john a/t westernbulletdotcom
Oh it is #370163, they just switched the recommended sizes around over time. Cherry #163 was never assigned to anything else. They used to do that quite a bit without actually changing much of the...
Are you sure that's 375183 and not 375163? My ref's show that cherry #183 was assigned to bullet #421183(ca. 1902, HB#14), and that same source lists a cherry #163 as being assigned to a .38-55...

Can the GC/PB be mixed within the same mould? If so. I'd like a 4-cav. as a 2GC/2PB.
If thats not in the cards, I'll take one 4-cav PB and one 4-cav GC.
I had a Ruger #1 for a while and liked using the #462560. When I felt like taking it a bit easier on my shoulder I used the #460390.
Lyman has offered multiple-weight bullets in the past and, usually, bullets that varied simply by addition/omission of additional grease grooves were not given their own numbers. For example, many of...
Modern Bond. Their numbering protocol, as I understand it, is caliber+bullet length. So your 429-750 is a .44 bullet that is 3/4" long. Since some bullets share similar lengths they also throw a...

I'll take one of each: 4-cav GC RG, and a 4-cavity GC

Hmmm...I put out a money order on the 24th, should be there by now or within the next day or so.
That looks more like a 'pound die' than a mould. That seems to be a hand-held swage rather than a mould.

It would appear any mould maker capable of making a deep-hollowbase mould could make such a beast.
