MiHec 3 cavity brass solid - 6.5mm Cruise Missle

[45 2.1]

MiHec 3 cavity brass solid - 6.5mm Cruise Missle
This is a run of an earlier Lee GB. This will be a three cavity on two cavity blocks, GC solid brass mold that is suitable for the military 6.5mm rifles. This includes, but is not limited to the 6.5x55 Swede, 6.5mm M-S, 6.5mm Jap. It will cast at 0.268" or just slightly over. There is no discussion thread as this is a widely known boolit design that has not been replicated to the proper dimensions since the first GB ran by Oldfeller. This will will be cut to the ORIGINAL design dimensions.

We will need fifteen to commit to this. We will run this until we get the number we need or more since this should be quite popular. Price is $95 plus $15 shipping.

Sequence of events: Participants order molds and are placed on the list, the Group Buy will close (which will be posted on the thread) at some time determined by MiHec, the molds are made from the orders on the list at the time it is closed or by altering what you want via PM to MiHec after it's closed. Extra molds should be available... order them by PM to MiHec. Invoices will be sent out via e-mail from the listed addresses and you pay by using Paypal...... It is my understanding the invoice will be in Euros which Paypal converts from Euros to dollars. After you pay, the mold gets shipped.

Please list your Forum name and your e-mail address in suitable form and the number of molds you want.

Thats what I thought too. For all the trouble everyones had with Lee's tolerences on this mold, I would have thought most of these guys would jump on one cut right............ but the price differential is a big factor too. Whats 0.002" or more oversize when you can buy four of them for the price of one cut right............

[alamogunr]

I'm a little surprised too. I have seen so many posts about the Oldfeller cruise missile, that I have wanted one for quite some time. In desperation I ordered 2 of the Lee molds from Mid South. I haven't used them yet and just received a 4 cavity from the GB with NOE. Also haven't had a chance to use it yet(just arrived this past weekend). With this one and the NOE mold, I should be able to find loads that will work in my Swedish Mauser.

If anyone is interested, I can part with one or both of the Lee molds. I'm not in a big hurry so I won't post in Swapping & Selling yet.

[NYBushBro]

Count me in for one.

The reason I'm not buying one is because I got sick of wasting money on dud molds so I ordered a mold from LBT,I would have bought one otherwise. Pat

At this price (and at the original specs!!!)... I seriously DOUBT this will would be considered a 'DUD' - judging from 45 2.1 (and Oldfeller).

I am looking to reproduce STARMETAL's results (ie: HV) - otherwise, I wouldn't bother.

Still looking for more test results from those intrepid researchers who took up the gauntlet...
what happened?

[NYBushBro]

FIVE to go... and ten years from now, you all will be kickin' yourselves.... in nameless places.

If you do, don't get into a p*****g match and get yourself banned.
I still miss his posts, just not the prickly part.

I would be interested also.

I doubt that I could ever match either Starmetal's results or those of those he crossed swords(Swedes) with. I'm not that much of an experimenter or that good a shot. I find it interesting to follow the lead of others and see if it works in my rifle.

Starmetal took two months of daily trials and on the phone help (and almost gave up) before he caught on to the buffer technique. Without learning it properly with lots of help your chances are low of finding it yourself. The results transfer over to all the medium burning smaller cartridges ( say 6mm to under 30 caliber) and its very well worth the time to learn..... but it ain't easy doing so. If you've read the milk jug thread, go back again and look at the last of the instructions. Nobody but Starmetal followed them all.

[NYBushBro]

Thanks for the pep talk...

I DO appreciate it... and once this mold is in my hands, I will recycle a lot of Pb looking the the 'window' (with help.)

[sffar]

Please sign me up for one mould. Will it be possible to get it cut slightly larger, like .270?
Thanks,
Sam
