    Any Interest in an MP made 147gr smooth (HiTek) for 9mm?

    I've updated this post because I've added a pic of calculations I've done that would make a great 147 grain boolit. Taking his MP359-135 and simply removing the lube groove will give a solid land area and by my calculations will give a 147-150 grain boolit. interested?

    1) No lube grooves, perfect for Hitek users.
    2) 147 grain
    3) 6 or even 8 cavity mold

    I'd definitely buy. Agree with 358. Don't know if penta would be possible, but would love to give that option a try. All pins has my vote.

    I agree with 358, would you still be interested if it went to 359 or 360? Sizing has been pretty easy for my other 360 MP mold to size back to 3575

    To meet the most needs it needs to be a conventional design with a "grease groove" as well as slick sided for those that P/C

    For me it would be too big. I don't want to size my bullets before and after PC.
