    New Accurate molds

    I originally ordered a single mold with two different boolit styles. Some how the computer messed things up and only one of the styles went through. I didn't find this out until the new mold arrived with only one of the boolit designs. I contacted Tom about it and he said my order was the first for messing up like it did. He told me he would cut me a double mold in the other design I wanted. So now I have two new molds from Accurate. I really like his molds and Tom is really fast with the turn around time also.

    He is amazingly fast for custom molds.

    While the mold I got from him for the 50 Beowulf didn't quite work as well as I'd hoped, the quality in those molds are top notch, and I absolutely agree on the turnaround time.

    Yeah, Tom gets all my non-HP mold business. Never thought I'd see a mold that is a step above Miha's.

    Tom's Accurate Molds fall into the quality category of Paul Jones cherry cut molds. One of Paul's molds on eBay just was bought for $525

    Tom is the man and where else are you going to find copies of the unobtainable Eagan moulds?

    Every mold I've gotten from him has been top quality and delivered ahead of schedule.

    Tom will clone any non HB, taper or round ogive nose (will be 1/8 metplate)
    I have sent him obsolete Ideal, Saeco, Hoch and RCBS mold bullets ... less than 2 weeks, receive the new molds

    So you sent him the actual boolits and he made you copies of them?

    Absolutely! If the bullet ogive was round, Tom does not have the CAD software for them so the nose is a 1/8" metplat ... No Big Deal
    Check Tom's catalog of bullets with the words, ie. - Clone of Ideal xyz bullet
    I have also just sent him the bullet dimensions, example: 9.5x47R, an obsolete bullet designed in 1880 and lasted for only 20 years for my Schuetzen rifle

    I found a bullet profile on Tom's site that was not the same caliber as what I needed (his bullet was .45 caliber and I needed .46 caliber). He made his .45 bullet mold into the .46 that I needed.

    I ordered a 48-420B on the evening of 7/9. That mold was in my mailbox on 7/13. I don't how he does it. That mold is a gem like all of them I purchased from him.

    I'm amazed at how fast Tom can produce a mold. I ordered a mold on July 8th knowing from past experience that I'd probably get it pretty quick. It was in the mail box last night. Five days! Unbelievable.

    I tried it out this morning. Perfect.

    I ordered my first from him 3-4 months ago. Ordered a second two weeks later. Both the aluminum and iron molds are incredibly well made. Tom had me my first on in 4 business days!
