This is by far one of the most heartening things one man can do for another. A man every family should be blessed to have. Dave, aside from being a wonderful human, you are the father every son...

Thank you for the heads up gpidaho! So those dimensions will cast a slug that goes into a shotcup, what about the Full Bore slug that he has on the site, any ideas as to what those weigh in and drop...

I've been wanting to order a Lyman-type slug mold from Miha for quite a while now, I've already received two miles from him in the recent past on a group buy, one is a 3-cavity .251cal 25ACP slug...

I have been toying with the thought of whether some of the full-bore slugs I have which include a 660gr .735" Lyman Sabot design, a Dixie-inspired design which will cast a .737" slug three weights,...

Jefe!

You're putting it rather mildly, my friend! A boxful of these would give cause for a maxillofacial procedure thereafter!!

Longbow,

The paradox that I had to shoot these through had ratchet-type rifled chokes and they both measured .720" I had to make three sizers for the Fosbery slugs and only a different ram for...

BloodTrail,

With regard to the size of the slug, you would do well to size it down to .729" or .730".. a round ball load measuring .735" and passing through a .728" bore will pose no problem as...

Jmort,

Thank you! I took more time to cobble up a name for this one than I did to get the damn thing made!

A much-needed trip to the farm was called and as always, any opportunity to sling a bit of lead should be grabbed with both grubby mitts!! So, out comes the 12ga William Evans Paradox that I was...

Well, the testing was finally done through a friend's William Evans 12ga Paradox SXS, just to see what these little puppies are capable of!! Test results posted in the "Casting for Shotguns" forum!!

Longbow,

David Commens is member on Castboolits, he now owns CBE, the Paradox mold I had them make is top-notch quality and does justice to the original Paradox slug legacy! I had it HP'd here and...

LittleJack:

Its great to hear that these slugs are shooting well! I can send you more if you'd want to play around with them or put up the dimensions of the mold so that someone can start making...

LittleJack:

Glad to hear you've received the slugs! I was on the farm rounding up a couple of things for the house that I'd left long pending and that took a while. I forgot to mention that the...

The slugs are in the mail! Watch this space for the test results!!:mrgreen:

No opinions on this one? Please feel free to make suggestions, criticize etc!

Sorry for the long hiatus, my health took a beating and thankfully things are much better now. LittleJack will be the first guy to test the new full-bore Lyman and will be sending him a few of the...

Full-bore Lyman Sabot, drops at 665 grains and .735". Will size these down to .732" and shoot them through a .729" fully rifled bore, a project that has been shelved for now. It will be interesting...

Was contemplating ordering a .25 cal mold from these guys http://www.generalordnanceusa.com/. Looks like good stuff, but has anyone here used their molds? Please chime in with your opinions.

Jack, My pincode is 411001, I could send you a few of the 'slap-happy' lyman slugs too, you'd be the first...

Longbow,

Yes, I had ordered the 12ga Paradox style mold from Jim Allison of CBE about two years ago for a friend who had bought a SLE Holland & Holland Paradox and with a lot of help from Graeme...

Change made to the length as per suggestion, and visually more proportionate too, with an addition of a lube groove the bearing area length is now .4027" (10.23mm) and its starting to resemble the...

Turbo,

I have but you to thank for this design, if I hadn't lurked onto CastBoolits a few years ago and saved that drawing for future use! It would've never have gotten to this stage, thank you...

Jack,

I have the 12ga Paradox mold from Jim at CBE, had it ordered for a friend who picked up an H&H 12ga SXS Paradox and managed to develop a good load and get it to shoot pretty darn well! I...

You mean like these?:mrgreen:

This design was inspired by a brass conical spacer found in the grip of an old
Crosman 357 Co2 pellet gun which measures .747" at the base, used to fill the gap when switching over from 12gram...
