What mold did you get today?

His wife posted that he was sick. JonB tried to get hold of him/or his wife with no reply. Last I heard Texas grunt was going into the hospital and was worried about his bird.

I just bought an Ideal 454424 mold with square grooves. Paid too much but she is a beauty. I am looking forward to casting with it (probably tomorrow).

I have now cast with this mold. I think it must have been essentially unused as it took some breaking in; imagine an eighty or so year old mold in such a condition! Pretty soon it started giving me very nice and sharp bullets of the original Keith type. I think this mold is going to be a favorite.

For the princely sum of $AU20 I bought a brass mould marked 458.260 from the local bargin bin. Casts up a 0.459 light weight boolit for my 45/70. I'm going to use it for shooting "Pat Garrett" matches in my 1886 lever.

I have that middle boolit. Its a good shooter for me!

Good grab on that LWT!!!

Wow, this was a shock. I knew he was on this forum but didn't know his user name. My first cousin once removed and brother from another mother passed away on 9-3-17. The infection he had spread to his heart and it couldn't handle it.


RIP Brother.

It's a 420gn Hensley & Gibbs boolit that casts at 0.460". A perfect match to my 1886 lever gun. Very consistant grouping at 100yds with issued sights!

Noe ranch dog 357 178 grn mold

[McFred]

I picked up a July 4 deal on a Lee 358-125-RF and some spare handles. Hope to use it to feed a 357 Sig and perhaps a friend's 9 Luger.

[mattw]

Picked up a Lyman 358627 from a member here... Only got a few made... They seem to drop small, but the cavities also seem to have crud in them that I should have cleaned out. Kinda looks like a baked graphite. Will clean it up and test again.

[cwlongshot]

I like this bullet and cast quite a few of them. Lil heavy for the magnum but dandy in the Maxi and the 35 Remington too!

Not sure what mine drop at... I powder coat too then uaually side to 360 and 359 for the 35 rem. (Wont fit @ 360.)


Good luck with it!

31-142D from Tom. Cleaned it up, cast a few. Came in just as spec'd weight and dia. It has vent lines on the mould TOP too. Noses still a bit wrinkled but base is great! Hornady GC snap right on, shank was cut 2 thou. smaller. Toothbrush time. I was excited and in a hurry.

[cwlongshot]

Just maybe my all time FAVORITE bullet!!

Time will tell cause I have barely loaded a fewdummies and have t sent a single one down range...

But a NOE 360/232 Ranch Dog mold I bought from a excellent member here!

I have a few Ranch Dog molds and every one is a GC. This one is a PB and being I PC most everything Im not even worried!!

Cast soft in 357 Max at 1500 FPS should be an any angle deer slayer!!!

NEI 454 230 gr RNFP hollow base, double cavity for a herd of 45 colt revolvers.

[mattw]

USPS delivered a decent Lyman 313249 to me yesterday. Hope I get to try it out this weekend. Double cavity 85 grain round nose that should drop around .314. Will try it in the 32 H&R and 32 ACP. In the ACP the 311252 is really a little short when seated deep enough to fit my chamber properly.

[sharps4590]

RCBS 7mm X 168 gr., GC. Rifle is still at the doctor having some elective surgery done so I have no idea how it will like it.

[Gatch]

I put a master caster on order, with a 122gr tc 9mm mold. And to fill in the time I ordered an 8cav 130gr rn bb from mihec.

Can't wait for the goodies to show up !

Buffalo Arms .444" 530 ELLIPTICAL GRAIN PAPER PATCH BULLET MOLD 1-CAVITY FLAT BASE

I've had this one on order for about 3 weeks and I hope it arrives soon. It will be my first PP mold for the 45 cal. Considered a Brooks PP mold but figured I'd try a BA mold first and see how this rifle liked PP bullets before going with a Brooks. Heck, they both make fine molds!
