I just sent an e-mail to lee precision suggesting they offer something like the Ranch Dog bullet in .432 and .460 gc molds and sizer/seaters to go with them. If they get enough requests, they may expand their line to include more suitable products. It's something to think about.

Don Eagan of Eagan mould fame is gone from us and is casting in a better place, don't believe there is anyone taking his place, was the finest maker of benchrest cast bullet moulds.

I can personally attest to the quality of a Borton-Darr bullet mould. I have seen them perform where it counts! Their casting qualities are dern near wonderful. the bullets fall from the mould. Of course, these are CUSTOM moulds Jim and Barry will work with you to fit YOUR rifle, etc.
Delivery has been excellent, also. Dale53 |

Had a chance to cast with a Borton-Darr mold this winter. A work of art for sure.

Borton-Darr Moulds specialize in moulds for competitive rifle shooting. Moulds are base pour single cavity made of steel with 3/16" thick sprue plate. Calibers .22 to .50. Each mould is made to individual client specification using any of our nearly 200 cherries, or made up to customer drawing, reproduce from sample, reproduce obsolete bullet styles or work with you in designing a bullet for your needs. We use a unique cherrie cutting process that allows us to tune bullet diameters to allow for a specific alloy shrinkage and/or oversize groove and bore diameters. No charge for making new cherrie cutters. Every mould is test cast to verify diameter and functioning of mould. Test castings are always sent with mould. Price of moulds is $115US, shipping included, handles $30 with mould order only. Our payment policy: do not prepay for moulds, "try it before you buy it" (within 30 days) If for any reason your not satified with our quality just return it. I also have a complete 200 yard ballistics testing range like used by commercial ammunition manufacturers, with muzzle to target velocity recording, time/pressure testing, and actual ballistic data output. The test facility is used by us to develop new bullet designs. Jim Borton has almost 40 years cast bullet experience and I have almost 40 years bullet mould making experience., both of us are competitive cast bullet rifle shooters. I hope this helps explain who we are. Regards Barry Darr Last edited by Mouldsmith; 03-14-2007 at 07:03 PM. |

I sent an email on 7/16/07 but haven't received a reply yet. I may just go with L.B.T. Veral responds pretty quick and he knows what I want most of the time. LBT provides very good service.
