Does anyone here still convert moulds to be able to make hollowpoints? I have not seen Buckshot for some time here and I was wondering if there was anyone that was still converting moulds for SWC or even wadcutters to make hollowpoints.

Shoot Buckshot a PM , I like his style of HP pins more traditional.
Most HP from other machinists leave the noses kinda tender to handle with sizing/seating.

Buckshot does beautiful work for the conventional Lyman pin style. Erik at Hollowpoint Services
does a wonderful job with Cramer pins or his own design plate type HP conversion.

Yes, moulds are still being converted.

I have several in the pipleline, including a 10 cavity Hensley & Gibbs #51. Still tweaking the design, but that's going to be something to see when its done.

Buckshot has done 3 moulds for me and every mould is A+++.

Of course! I usually post the results of a conversion a few days after I receive it.
