    Re Run MiHec 502 385 HP GC

    Been a while since this was done and it's a great boolit for the Smith and the Beowulf.

    Comes in at just about 385 as a pentapin HP. and right at 400g as a solid point.

    Here is the link to the solid version.

    Here is the drawing for the small pins.

    Here is Mihec's CAD rendering.
    That has the large pins. I would like to NOT include those.

    I purpose a 3 hole brass mold with the option of Pentapin and a 'small' round HP.
    (I'm still looking for the details)
    A solid point (non crammer) option as well.

    Sign up here but PLEASE include a munged email address in the "I want" post.
    MiHec sends a Paypal invoice to that address when the molds are done.

    I want one of these! It looks like there are two threads for this boolit going on in this board now. The small pin, and penta would be nice. The large pin on the last group buy was causing fragmentation, but that doesn't bother me. Any way it comes will please me!

    I don't think so, but I haven't looked that hard.
    There is a similarly named 502-400 being done.
    That isn't the same as this mold.

    Do you have a link? I'd rather combine the threads then have 2 run at the same time.

    I would guess about $110 plus shipping.
    But that's just a guess.
    I'm still trying to figure out why the 311410 GB is $160!!!
    I stayed out of that just because of that price.

    I'm in that GB as well. I've been deciding whether I would ride it out, buck sixty seems a bit pricey to me as well. Especially since I already have a lyman example downstairs.

    This was the discussion I was referring to:

    http://castboolits.gunloads.com/show...-of-502-cramer

    I believe it is the same mold being discussed.

    Don't care who gets it going, but you have been more informative about the 50's and this boolit on this board and others than most. I am all for a rerun if you can get enough interest in it.

    I put a link in the older thread.
    That thread started very shorty after the first buy was delivered IIRC.
    The only other interested party was Franknbarb.
    I added them to this list.
    It's been about 2 1/2 years since the original, about time to rerun this.

    I don't understand why unless the thin nose is a problem to cut, and several cherries will be sacrificed. That is my only guess.

    Well I know he has had trouble with cherry suppliers, costs could be up there, but that is a one time thing.

    I'd lean towards the HP pins as the culprit. 8 to a mold per type (24 total I think), far more labor in them then in the brass mold itself.

    I'll PM MiHec and get a more solid quote on what this rerun will cost.
