480 Ruger - got me into reloading and will always be the fav.
Now that Dan at Mountainmolds has retired, any other design your own websites out there?
Tom at Accuratemolds always has top quality work (and patience.. 48-405P, 46-502P, etc) but I cannot find...

I’m guilty of doing the same thing. Sell a gun then some ammo and brass, dies etc for the next interest thinking I’m done with that and won’t come back to it.. *smacks forehead
Now that I have a couple 480's again I asked Tom to make this one for me but honestly there are already quite a few nice WFN in the catalog already so there was no need.
I was kind of going after...

I loved his website. His molds and shipping speed were top notch. Real easy to chat with too
Thanks Dude, got lucky and it may be a little silly but I'm pretty damn happy I got her back.
Funny how there's one or even a couple that attach themselves to you on a level the others don't.
