'06 paper patch molds

[Marlin Junky]

Has anyone had a chance to work with AM's 30-160P? I'd like to acquire a PP mold for my M70 in 30-'06 but 30-160P doesn't strike me as a good fit. I also prefer a bevel base so the patches don't tear so easily when twisting the tails. My chamber looks to be a standard SAAMI '06 chamber.

Does this ring a bell? http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?t=129110

I designed that boolit especially in response to your "challenge". All you need to know is in that thread, including how to patch it and why it fits the way it does. If you get one, specify both the body diameter AND the nose band diameter, it's designed to be a patched bore rider for guns with short throats.

Have fun!

Gear,

Thanks for the link. I haven't returned to that thread since my last post there.
