    NOE Paper Patch Adjustable for 458s?

    Posted earlier on the NOE Forum. Would function like an adjustable core mould.
    Hoping to stir a little interest here, enough to interest Al.

    "So, Al... If offered at .451-.452, bored from the base, using the sprue plate to cut a nice flat hunting meplate, in a tall single cavity block, with multiple shallow grooves (to grip paper), and a base plug fitted to a screw bolt going through a threaded plate to adjust length/weight... should be a cake-walk, huh?
    Where else can a caster dream away like this?
    Heck, a matching base-plug could be offered for shallow cup bases (some BP shooters) while the flat could be adjusted between grooves to produce full diameter or quasi-rebates for different tail-twisting preferences.
    1 mould for multiple throats... NOW I'm having fun! "

    an rg mold with different inserts for different weights would be perfect

    I would certainly be in for one of those. I have one rifle that needs boolits patched to groove due to the throat design and the mould I am using now is a real pain. Count me in!

    Al has replied on the NOE Forum with drawings for a possible candidate.
    If all interested will join the discussion, any input will be welcome.
    Hopefully we can get this going soon. Al's really quick when enough interest is generated.

    C'mon guys and girls... Wouldn't take many more showing interest to make this happen quickly.
    Al says he has tooling in hand to do a Lyman-style removeable plug that can be inserted to different langths, offering multi-weight choices.

    I can't supply a link, but this is an ongoing discussion on NOE's forum. Just look into the group buy discussion section to add your interest to the conversation.
    Al's very helpful at getting these things going, and this one seems promising with the intrest it's beginning to receive.

    NOE has their own forum now? Is that what you mean? Because when you say go to the "group buy discussion forum" I hate to point out that that's exactly where we are… And this is the only mention I can find of the topic

    Yes, NOE has started their own forum and wants all the group buy discussions to happen over there.

    Thanks, Nobade, conversation via the internet is not my strong suit.

    Al's design drawings allow for the mould to drop at 350, 400, 450, & 500 grains.
    It appears that we have 7 people posting on NOE's forum showing their interest. A couple more should move this from the "Group Buy Discussion" to the "Active" section on NOE's site.
    These buys move quickly sometimes, but early sign-ups receive a 15% discount... You can't beat that!

    Hmm, this could even be a candidate for 450 Bushmaster with powder coating -
    Wonder if it will feed in an AR?
