    After the holidays I will get together with Catshooter and we WILL get this one done. If anybody has samples of the Keith bullets please let us know. Jay

    I hope so, I surely do! I'd hate to see this one go "gone beaver"!

    That still amazes me…I don’t care who you are or how much I care about you, I would never let you kill my son. I can’t even begin to understand how much He loves us.

    If you get an exact match of the 358429 in 6 cavity, please count me IN, IN IN! I might buy 2 or 3, even...

    In fact, Catshooter mentioned getting 6 cavity moulds in all the classic Keith designs, and I would commit to getting at least 1 of each 429421, 454424, and the currently discussed mould, the 358429.

    Catshooter & mroliver77,
    I'll be happy to send samples of 358429 from 2 defferent molds.
    Tolerance check? Get me a snail mail address and I'll wrap 'em up.
    How many of each??

    Whoops, I just gathered my stock and found that they were ALL lubed and sized. You can still have some but won't this corrupt the value of the measurements you find? TTYL Pepe Ray

    Ray,

    It might also be helpful if you let us know what the mould manifactureers are and what the mould #s are.

    Most "Keiths" aren't. Thanks.

    I'm just trying to remind everyone about this! Let's not allow this to become a "forgotten project". I've already put it in my budget and I'm really pumped!~

    The .357, .44, and .45 will definately have my attention once a general consensis is reached and we're ready to design & order.

    Don't forget that sweet little .41 Maggie! She is such a sweet shy gal, but oh so very good at what she does!!!

    Agreed! Somewhere along the line we ought to do a 410459 or even a 41032. I think the 410459 is more Keith-like in appearance.

    Smile

    Or, since we're drawing a NEW one, why not the 410459 with a nose more like the larger meplat of the 454424? Weighing in at maybe 235 to 240 gr. Just another idea, but I'll bet Elmer would've liked it.

    The 41032 is kind of pointy looking for a SWC, not to mention GC design.

    Just another stick in the pot.8)

    Sounds good to me. I would like any plain based SWC for the 41. My copy of the 41032 is plain based. I didn't know it was made in GC. That is really neat. I may have to start looking for one.

    Guys, For what it's worth,
    I Have a bunch of 358429 bullets that I purchase years back. I fed the dimensions into the software and these are the results of the calculations and sketches. I had to shrink the sketch to fit the parameters of the attachment software, but I think that it is still readable.

    I noticed that some are able to post a thumbnail attachment that will open a full screen sized image. Can anyone tell me how that is done? I haven't yet figgured out the process.
