Interest in "Ruger Only" .45 Colt mold?

**fivegunner** · 06-02-2009, 08:50 PM

can it be made in two cavity HP????? that would trip my trigger!!

**Snyd** · 06-04-2009, 11:41 PM

I may be interested. But what I really would like though is a 350-360gr LBT style WLN like the Cast Performance 360gr for my 4 inch redhawk. How much $$$ I've never done this before, I'm a newbie still waiting on my order for my pot and moulds. I do however have 450lbs of ww ingots smelted ready to go!

I got 45 Rugers, and a Casull. Wonder if it'll feed in a Wrangler Winnie? It ought too. This heavy should have plenty of "thump" I'll bite.......

I'll bite as well.

Is this going to be a group buy or is this just a lot of "I Wannas"! Robert

"I wanna" little more info like how many cavities and the price and what mould handles it will take.

**guninhand** · 06-07-2009, 04:00 PM

I could go for a 350-360 LBT, single cavity, but will consider 2 cavity, preferably made by MiHec. HP oK if still up in 350-360 gr range weight.

Allready done, you only have to flip the pins in mihas mold to go from hp to solid point.

I'd like it to be a six cavity aluminum. And I'd like it to be here next week. For $15.

Just found this thread after asking about a heavy 45 in the colt thread. I'd go with a 350-360 gr hp for in the 45-70. Although I'd want a gas check on it.

I'd also like to keep it in a 2 cavity brass, Miha's brass moulds are a thing of beauty, and almost to pretty to use.

Thanks,
Ken

I'm still interested in a 350-360gr LBT style.

**Hardcast416taylor** · 06-19-2009, 02:14 AM

I don`t see anything happening here except alot of guys saying this sounds like what they would want. Yes, I said I was interested, as did everyone else so far, so what happens now? Robert

We wait.

Sometimes it takes a while. We only have about half the people needed. We may need to make some changes to attract more buyers.

45 2.1's design in post #9 looks very interesting to me. I like the idea of switching the pins and going from a solid to a hollow point. Also prefer the single lube groove.

Just my 2 cents.

I think the bullet in #9 is the going thing. I don't think anyone is strongly in favor of 2 lube grooves.

Jerry,

Would you mind if the GC were a little heavier? Like 340?

**15bobcat** · 06-19-2009, 10:08 PM

I'd be interested if it was a Miha style with reversable pins and gas check option. Any thoughts on the diameter?

I've got a trails end 94 Winchester that feeds a 360 grain long flat nose (.410 from crimp groove to meplat) like butter. Hits like a darn 45-70 with a heavy dose of 296 and accurate too.

Like this one? This is a custom jobber that Veral did for me. 2/1 ww/pure gc'ed and lubed weighs in right at about 360 grains. Meplat is .4 and nose-to-crimp is about .385. I haven't killed anything with it yet, but it should hit like a hammer.

Edit: Forgot to add that it fits in my Blackhawk cylinder with room to spare.
