    bollits for turk

    I realize this is an old thread, but here goes. My turk mauser slugs at .313/.324. I'm not set up for casting, so I want to buy cast. What i have seen (at Montana) has .324 as the largest diameter. Assuming the boolits need to be a few thousand over, where would I get boolits in .325 or .326?

    Anybody who cast boolits. Just ask the supplier not to size the produce, and demand that the minimum diameter be 325-326 out of his mold. ... felix

    We have the two group buy molds that if I remember correctly drop at .327"/.328"
    I think they run about 230 and 250gn.
    We have other designs but I am not sure if they will drop that large in diameter.
