    Rcbs 45-500-pp

    Hello Folks,

    This appears to be a nose pour mold. No base is shown in the photo. How does this mold work?

    Thanks, Tom

    Look at Buffalo Arms and you will see the base on the same mould.

    hollow based, patch to groove.

    Looked at it on the BACO site. Their's is .451" diameter while Midway claims .454".

    Funny review on the BACO page for this mould:

    Reviewed By: Keith H. Review Date: 4/18/2015 Comments: awesome mold. Highly recommend. average weight with nearly pure lead is 556 grains. wrapped with painters tape and greased I use the bullets in my 45-105. good quality and consistent diameters.

    I suppose he meant 'masking tape' ... and using it makes it unnecessary to learn how to spell 'confetti'.
    Retired...TWICE. Now just raisin' cows and livin' on borrowed time.
