    A couple of old Ideal moulds...

    These two Ideal moulds arrived on my doorstep today. The first is a No.40043 which will see some use, in combination with an Ideal No.3 tool, to feed my old Winchester Model 1873 .38 W.C.F.

    The second one is a No.450225, which was originally intended for use in the old Colt and Remington cap 'n' ball revolvers. The old box is kinda beat up, but the mould is really nice. Might be tempted to give this one a try in my Uberti Walker repro...

    They sure are. Have 29 and 3 Tong Tools. Many that I didn't count are the old Lymans cut from Ideal cherries at the beginning of the takeover

    For me, at least, they're like peanuts... can't have just one!
