    Cramer B4 .

    Saved another classic from an ingrate .
    This is 1 that doesn't show up in the catalog featured on the Cast pics pages . So it took a little while to figure it out . The seller thought it was a 6mm or 257 ....... And for the asking price I couldn't just let lay there in a box with 2 Ideals , 2 Lymans and a dozen Lee's .

    I only cast a few to get an idea of what I really had , so I didn't get full up to proper temps . I'm supposed to be packing for a move and a new mould was desperately needed .....see purple font rule .
    The end result is a .280-130 with a .271 nose with a taper in front of the band of possibly .274 for about .05 but the good tools are packed .

    Anyway now the world knows what a Cramer B4 bullet mould looks like and maybe a net search will turn it up for the next guy .

    I was young and stupid then I'm older now. Me 1992 .

    I'm holding out for a long range 6.8 bullet . Maybe a titch flatter shooting than the NOE 278-124 . It sure would have been nice if it had been a 150 ...... Its a great classic mould in any case .
