    1" bullet mold

    Is there such a thing? I have found fishing sinker molds on Ebay but they dont give a diameter, just a "#" a #11 for example according to one seller is 28mm in diameter. He did not have a 25.4 millmeter aka 1".
    After some search engining, I cant find a cross reference for sinker size numbers to diameter, only charts with weights.
    I want to make 1" balls for a cannon.

    Jeff Tanner molds (now his son). 1" is slightly more expensive than smaller ones, at about $75 shipped to your door in 2-3 weeks. https://www.ballmoulds.com/product/ball-mould-large/

    These are cut to the cavity size, so for as close to a 1" ball as possible, I would order a 1.005" mold.
