Or maybe I should say expired. I'd bought the cherry off ebay some time ago. I had one mold made, and judging from the boolit it produces. the cherry was more than just a bit worn. I tried to get BaBore to squeeze a few more molds out of it. He called after trying a test cut and told me it was leaving some big burrs. It broke near the end of the first cavity being cut. It just couldn't cut anymore without applying too much torque on the small meplat, snap. Give the pieces a decent burial Bruce. Happy that I got a single cavity mold made earlier, the bullet's really a shooter out of my Krags. I still have the cherries for the 30G and 30US.

If you have dimensions, one of the custom mold makers could revive the design, if not
the actual cherry.

Yes that's a thought, it wouldn't necessarily have to be a nose pour, BaBore does a good job of perfectly squaring the bases on his molds.
