    Lightbulb INTEREST THREAD - MP made molds for your Magma or Ballisti-Cast machines

    Miha is getting up and running on his Steel molds, has 200 blocks already squared up and ready to go. This first GB will be a single bullet type if we can agree on or maybe 2 types if they are already designed and Miha has the cherry.

    What would your vote be for the type of bullet machined?

    9mm?
    45acp/Colt?
    44mag?
    40?
    357?
    38?

    Depends who has the machines and what they desire to cast.

    Lets get the voting started and make a decision off of the top 2 votes.

    If this runs well, the honchos will be running many more of them, This is great news!!!

    With 4 votes in, 3 have interest in .45 which is great, but it looks split between long colt and ACP... There are a very few that do both well, any suggestions?

    Ok Guys,

    After takling with Miha today, we agree on how the process should run:
    1) 5 GB's of a single bullet shape will get this closed. Which means we only need 2, to get into Actice Status.

    Our suggestion is, start with the 45acp and pick 1 bullet type, like the 230g RN? or some other that you guys decide on next?

    I'll put the page together, one GB on one page....

    Price will be 125 Euro abd then there is a 15% discount the he will give you at checkout.
