    Kudos to Eric at Hollow Point Molds dot com........

    Attachment 204117


    Just thought I'd share my new modified Lee 401-175 mold. Curious, I asked him if he modifies "6-cavity" Lee molds, knowing he did the 2-cavity version.

    When I found out he did, in fact, modify 6-cavity molds, I sent him my new Lee 402-175 to have 2 cavities hollow pointed.

    What you see is the final product; and it works like a champ. Feeds both my .40's, and one 10mm. Enjoy, my friends.

    I'd like too see some of the casts you get from it...up close where the pins and the mould meet.

    I have a couple of Lee 6 bangers I might like to do that to....here's the $65 question..."How much and how long does it take?"

    OS OK-

    I'll take some photos of the ones I cast recently, shortly.

    Eric charges $50 per cavity as per his website notation; turn around time was about 3 weeks, but was probably less.

    Erik does great work @ a fair price. He has done several diff molds for me but I am probably done with the LHP thing for awhile.

    fredj338-

    I'm right there with you, my friend. I've got more molds than I have time for. I'm pretty much set for now.

    Now, to play with my buckshot molds; seems loading coyote handloads is a fad for now...........woohoo!
