Ive got a old Win 25/35 94 made in 1907. Can anyone suggest a good mold for this cartridge?

Lyman 257-325 . NOE will be doing a group buy for this mold in the not too distant future.

I think I have an ideal tong tool with mold on the end marked 25/35....
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

I load for the very similar .25 Remington with the NEI 257-114-GC, RCBS .25-100-FN, Ranchdog 258-80-RF(I think NOE has the designs now), and a few others oddballs. The RCBS is a good all around mold.
They are and did I miss out? I want one of these for my .25 Remington Model 8.
Lyman 257-325 - You did not miss out. The NOE group buy thread should be up soonish.

I see Rcbs makes only 2 molds in 25 cal; the 120gr looks too pointed for a lever gun. What about the 85 gr mold?
Midway shows it in stock: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/111...nose-gas-check. A little write up on it: http://www.castpics.net/subsite2/ByC...025-100-FN.pdf
I have the NOE 260 FN mold that throws both 100 and 120 grain bullets. Works great for my 25-35. I see he has some in stock, at the 100 grain version. Casts a beautiful bullet.

When it's time to fight, you fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah's Ark.... and brother, it's STARTING TO RAIN!!
I'd really like to see a 75 or 60 grain gb for a 4 ,5,or6 cavity, HP or not,GC or not, my 25-20s are doing well with a 65 cast NOE hp, but I need better production.
