    Talking Cannon Ball Sinker Mold - 1-1/2, 2-1/2, 3-1/2 & 4-1/2 Oz Size question

    I am looking to see if anyone has this mold and can tell me what the 3 1/2 oz mold ball casts at? I have the 3 oz mold, and I am looking to see if the 3 1/2 cast a closer size to my 1 inch diameter goal. The 3 oz are a little small, .92 inches. Im using these in my new cannon, that has a 1 inch bore.

    Thanks for the info but those are a little steap. Close to 100$ after shipping. I can pic up the aluminum ones off of amazon for 33$ shipped.

    They are. I'm going to replace the chassis. Needs something a little nicer.
