You're close! He will still need your email address and he will send you a Paypal invoice to that address when the molds are finished, packed and ready to ship.
Scroll back up through the posts and look at the other's orders to see different ways to disguise your email so the spambots that are always surfing the web don't find it and bomb your box with junk mail.
It'll be something like Bobs.email at gmail(dot). com or something similar so that an address scanner doesn't pick it up easily.

Huge thank you to everyone who keeps checking back, and helping others along, I know I was confused my first group buy.
Mihec molds are indeed worth the wait, every time I bring out my 9mm HP mold I can't stop casting. I know I should stop at some point but once the mold & melt is at a perfect temp and the boolits drop easily all shiny and flawless with that hollowpoint... Well I guess it couldn't hurt to cast just a few more

Put me down for a 2 cavity brass cramer hollow point 1 set large and small pins. E-mail is Ravenhawk57@aol.com. Thanks
As of yet, no pictures are available other than eye candy from previously modified molds.
I've found multiple sources of information detailing the original pin size, depth and angle, however the method and design of the older hollowpoint molds, ie using a single pin that is withdrawn from the closed mold before it is opened, differs from the cramer method where the mold is opened, and the boolits are expected to fall free of the pins.
I asked Miha for his experience regarding cramer HP pins, and he mentioned rounded pins, large and small.
The smaller pins will most likely prove useful at higher velocities, with a high BHN in order to retain boolit mass & penetration capability.
The goal is very similar to the beautiful mold modified by Erik Ohlen to Mr. Fryxell's specs seen on http://www.lasc.us/Fryxell38KeithHP358439.htm (bottom of the page)
Miha is a busy guy on any given day of the week, and while I know we want updates, pics, molds, and boolits I'm sure we will hear a little more soon after the big holiday season, after everyone has spent quality time with family and relatives.
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, and wishing everyone a Happy new year!

I'm #24 on the list. Please change my order to .360 diameter. My hope is that with the right alloy this will allow the reduced diameter front band to cast at .358 rather than .356 and then I can get all three bands sized to .358.
I would like to get on the list .358 plain base all pins two cavity.
This is a first for me let me know if I missed something

Just finished doing some measurements. I was wanting this mold for a M&P R8 and the absolute longest OAL it will accept is 1.6355 and that would leave no wiggle room at all. I typically load them at 1.59 and sometimes a little longer if necessary. This mold design indicates the OAL can be no shorter than 1.665 when crimped within the supplied crimp groove, which is way too long for this particular wheelgun and many others. Anyone else done measurements and noticed the length on this thing is going to be longer than it should be?
Well, after doing a little reading, as I should have from the beginning, I now see the issue. Read the article linked in the original post.
Guess some of the newer revolvers are in fact still using the shorter cylinders. 627/327 just won't work with this one.The S&W .357 Magnum was made with the same cylinder length of the .38/44 Heavy Duty, and if the 358439 was loaded into Magnum brass, and crimped in the crimp groove, the overall cartridge length was too long to function in the relatively short cylinder. Keith recommended that his bullet either be seated deep in .357 brass and crimped over the forward driving band, or loaded into .38 Special cases and crimped in the crimp groove for use in the S&W N-framed .357 Magnums. Most of the more recent models of .357 Magnum revolvers have been made with longer cylinders, so this is not an issue.
Please remove me from the group buy. I may decide to purchase a different wheelgun in the future that will feed these, but undecided and don't want to be taking up space on the list without knowing for certain I have something that can use these as intended.

The boolits from my old Lyman mold shoot very well loaded in .357 cases and seated/crimped to the shoulder.
