G'Day
Why didn't I buy some of BaBores gallery molds when I could.
What I was wondering is what happened to his cherries and does anyone have a save copy of his catalouge?
I know why he stopped making molds but he sure is missed!

I don't think the cherries were sold.

I'm pretty sure Bruce still has them, and they are for sale to someone willing to pay what they're worth.

Hello,

Many of BABore's molds were based on designs of a member whose screen name is .45 2.1. Several of those boolit designs have been offered in Mihec's line of molds.

If you are interested in any particular offering, Throw up a post on Group Buy Discussion and see if the spark catches fire.

CASTPICS use to have the catalog of BRP's molds..........I don't know if it is still there but it could be.

You are not the only one who misses Bruces' fine line of moulds:(. Not many mould makers actually do testing of most of their product line like Bruce did.

If only I had more coin when he was in business.........oh well I guess that will make me treasure the 16 that I do own a little bit more.

Aye Bruce did indeed make fine moulds casting fine boolits, I do treasure the few I have. Also a lesson to take nothing for granted.

I also miss having Bruce around to make the great BRP molds ! He produced several custom designs for me which were ultimately incorporated into his catalog and several that were not. I treasure the 4-cavity 429106 and 429220 molds! :)

I was a little too late to the casting game and missed out before Bruce closed up shop. :-(

Don't worry Jailer I was too stupid to buy when I could.
Castpics produced nothing but thanks to those who suggested it, I'll have to keep looking.

I am fortunate to know Bruce via phone calls. I purchased molds for calibers that I liked the design he had listed. He would supply samples of the particular mold for you to test. Yes, I wish I also had bought more of his molds, but being on a pension sort of limits what free spending I can do. I understand his reasoning for closing, it`s just that this was a loss to casters from then on.Robert

I only have a couple of Bruce's molds. He was very pleasant to deal with and made a beautiful boolit mold. Like most of us, I wish I had more. Maybe one day he'll get back and make us some more !! enjoy Mike

My problem too, no money. Bruce is a master and a wonderful person. We exchanged E mail and he helped for my home made molds. He sent me boolits to test.
I wish the best for him and hope he is doing good.
