Differences in moulds.....

I just finished unboxing and assembling my brand new NOE 5 cavity .360-200grainRCBS-FN and I am mighty impressed! This mould is like a fine piece of machinery, just lovely. No burrs no nothing just a super smooth sprue plate and pins that line up like a bank vault only with much less effort.

This mould is aluminum and came with a little bottle of sprue plate lube and a pair of adjustment wrenches for the mould. They are advertised and accepting Lee 6 cav handles with minor modifications. Not on mine. The mould slid into place perfectly, like a finely machined block of metal, which it is. Perfect.

My mould collection is at 12 and counting. I have a buch of Lee moulds and a bunch of Lyman. This NOE is my first "custom mould". I can't wait to cast up a bunch of new boolits and get shootin'! I bought this mould for my .35 Rem, should be a real deer thumper with the big flat nose.

I can't knock the big factories for their moulds, without them there would be no cast boolits for most of us. I just had to say how very impressed I was at the quality of the machining NOE does on thier moulds. Wow, just wow....

You just can't beat Swede's products and service. First class all the way.
It is very refreshing.

"I feel the need--for Swede."
I like his molds immensely. they are as good as any and better than most. I currently have have six of his molds and will surely end up with more. They are fine. I bought a 2 cavity 311-440 brass mold from him that is an absolute delight and one of my favorites.

After having cast up a passel of boolits yesterday from my new 5 banger I can confirm that this mould is new and exciting territory for me, as far as ease of casting and production goes.

This will not be my last mould from NOE.
