    Those look nice! This is my first hp and brass mould and I’m having problems with fill-out. Almost all of my bullets are wrinkled, mostly the hp’s. I’ve turned up my PIS to 760 and it’s getting better, but...do I keep raising the temperature?

    Heat your mold more. Or cast faster until you get good boolits, your mold is too cold.

    Got it and it looks great like always. What a selection of pins too, deep, not-as-deep-but-still-pretty-deep, penta, cup, and flat.

    Still waiting as well. There is no telling what U.S. customs does with these. I got a mold last week from an MP buy that closed almost a month after this one. Always post marked and invoiced for the day after payed up, so not Mihec's fault!

    In the same boat. Have not received mine. Thanks for the heads up with U.S. customs, because I just received a invoice for another mold I order from MP Molds

    Mold received today... Box looked like it had been dunked in water, only thing holding it together was the tape. Hasn't rained here in days? Post office tried to pre-patina it for me, water was dripping out of the cavities. I appreciate all the rust inhibitor on those HP pins now! Lucked out, other than a spot of rust on the sprue plate screw everything looks great.

    Holy cow! They really beat that package up.
    Got my mold today. And I'll say the box looked considerably better than yours.
