Are there any active or upcoming core mould buys/builds in the works? I've looked through the active group buys section of the forum and monitor the swaging section but I haven't seen anything that looked like it was active. I've got the Blackmon core mould and while it works well, it's only a 4-cavity and I'd really like something with more capacity to speed things up.

Nix,
I don't know if you know I make adjustable core moulds. Here is a link to them for those interested:

How much are your steel sprue plates for the Lee 6-Cav molds?

Do they use the same shoulder bolts as the Lee?

I have one of upnorth's core moulds, I figure with the swaging it would help with the production aspect. The quality is rather impressive to say the least as well as the turn around time since I furnished the mould and needed his services.

Once you figure out where to set it for varying weights it's a blessing and the rate of production is spectacular. I was using regular bullet moulds but what he did with my mould was great and my cores drop out with a flick of the wrist.

All I have to add is the craftsmanship is remarkable......

Well, that settles that. UpNorth; what's the process to place an order? I'm making cores for .22LR-to-.223 bullets. Do you have all the diameter info or do I need to submit something to you?

BT Sniper also makes a wonderful core mold.
