THE HP VERSION OF THIS BUY WILL BE CLOSING THIS SATURDAY THE 10TH. IF YOU WANT IN ON THIS BUY DO SO NOW. ONCE CLOSED YOU'LL HAVE TO HOPE FOR AN OVER-RUN FROM MIHA. DON'T COUNT ON GETTING ONE UNLESS YOU'RE IN ON THIS BUY.
The mold materials will be ordered once it's closed. There will be some time involved in acquiring the components, then the machining. Molds are usually done about a month after the buy closes. I'll keep you posted.
Trigger,
I need this mould like I need another hole in my head! Give me one anyway! I may have to plug one of those holes up there soon!
I would like a .434" with only the round pins, please.

GLL, you're good to go. Welcome!

This buy is now closed
1 month or so.
Just heard from Miha. There had been some concern that the HP pins might hold this mold up in production. They are being built now and we should still be on schedule. Hopefully we'll start seeing invoices in a few weeks.
TH
Just heard from Miha, molds should be on the mill next week. He's been waiting on the pins to get done.
I hate to be too antsy and I don't believe in rushing folks when you want good work, but have you heard any further news? Like any idea when the first batch will ship?
The reason I am asking is that our first firearm deer season (where I wanted to use this bullet) is Nov. 18th here in Illinois. Working backward with maybe 10+ days transit time from Slovenia, a bit of time to get the mold cleaned up and tweaked, cast some, size some, load some, test some....anyway it's getting close!
Just keep your ear to the rail and let us know if you have a revised estimated ship date! Thanks again for honchoing this buy and all the work that entails.

Update from Miha: Machining on molds should be completed, with the molds boxed and ready to ship in 10 days. That makes the invoice date around November 17th or so. Keep your eyes open.
Invoices should go out this weekend and early next week!
I'd be interested in an extra mold of the runovers. As I understood Miha and from other threads, I just post my interest here along with my info?

In the excitement of getting this mold and the holiday season. I'd like to take a moment and say a very humble Thank You! to you Trigger. Most of my time here is just informational, perfecting a craft. I've looked at lots of GB's and I have to say that you have got this down. I've been a little shy of some GB's that don't appear to have the level of attention to detail that you do. Anyone ever considering the daunting task of Honcho would be well served to study your method.
Thank you again and Merry Christmas!!!
