Howdy yall! I am trying to hunt down this mold but I may be questioning my sanity. Does the mold even exist? I have tried hunting even for a photo of the cavities and I am getting bubkiss. Anyone have one or know where I can find one? Heck, even a photo? Thanks in advance!
Just in case, here is a photo of one. (Lyman 548669)

Could you PM me those sources? I would love to have them if possible.Originally Posted by OverMax

Appears very much to be little different version, or perhaps an improved version of a Maxi Ball.....

When it comes to Muzzle Loaders, Black Powder Matters.
The older Three Peaks Mold Chart I downloaded in 2006 (548669) >isn't listed. But the current site chart of T-P shows it does exist. Lyman 3 edition cast handbook again the mold isn't listed. So I'm considering this mold to be a >ghost mold.Seams it does exist. It's on Ol buffalo s chart see my previous post 2015
Oh fun! I am chasing a ghost!

I don't know. But could it be that they both shoot the same load so they only listed the one?

Turning the maxi into a boolit...
What an idea!!!
Could it ever occur to them to make their barrels fit their molds instead of vicey versey?
.458 and .515 bore diameter muzzleloaders would just be too radical of a concept.
If the mold is unavailable or obsolete. "Hello Casper."
