    New Accurate Brass mold ordered

    After reading a bunch of posts on this forum you guys have peeked my interest in trying a brass mold. So I ordered my first Brass Boolit mold from Accurate molds, which will be my first time dealing with Tom. I took a design that was on NEI's website and tweaked it so that it would come within .010 of the end of the cylinder in my Dan Wesson's. Tom is an absolute pleasure to deal with and VERY quick to respond my first email was sent in the morning and by the late afternoon he had sent me an email saying the design was on the sight for me to look at. I will post pictures when it arrives and obviously test results. Very excited and impressed with Accurate Molds customer service so far. Bullet 36-171N is the one I had Tom work up.

    Wait for it, wait for it.......I'm sure there will be plenty here soon enough to tell you how you wasted your money on a brass mold. I personally love them and they're all I buy

    I have an MP brass mold. The beauty alone is worth the price.

    Not sure why they would say brass is waste I love the brass molds I have and I enjoy the accurate aluminum molds I have as well

    Well I got an email on Thursday that my 3 cavity 357 mold is on it's way! 31 hrs. after my initial email it's on the way! Unless I just hit the perfect time that is amazing turnaround. Assuming that it casts good, I'm sure it will, I will definitely be ordering another Accurate mold. I'm thinking a 45 Auto mold might be next, of course I do need a new mold for my 445 supermag or a 41 mag Keith design or.............. This is going to get expensive.

    Once you get everything up to temperature and running you'll wonder why it took you so long get to one of Tom's brass molds. At least it changed my life.

    Typical turnaround is six days after I give Tom the thumbs up. Like, mash the go button on Friday and it's on my doorstep Thursday, every time.
    Yep, he spoils us rotten.
    Precision in the wrong place is only a placebo.

    I have to join the praise party. Several of Tom's aluminum moulds and one brass mould are in my stable. Each one is as near perfection as I think we will find on this side of the divide.

    More Kudos for Tom.
    I ordered my 9mm aluminum mould on a Saturday evening and it was on my porch that same Wednesday afternoon. I actually had holes in a target the same evening. Service like that is unheard of.
    Do, or do not.
    There is no try.

    I just got my first brass mould (one from MP) and am amazed at the beauty. Oh yeah, and it casts well too... kinda like finding out J-Lo can cook!
