Hello all ! I just bought a .501 NEI iron mold off Flea bay. It was some kind of factory second, but was supposed to cast good boolits. Well you guessed it by now. It doesnt. The GC shank is about 10 thou too big and I cant get a check on the boolits. So I would like to get a PB cut on to it. Its a 3 cav mold. Does someone here do this kind of work. There used to be a fellow here who went by Buckshot who comes to mind. I have been out of casting for a couple of years. And my job has eaten all of my time until recently. So I am out of touch with whose doing What these days. Thanks in advance...Buck

Eric at Hollowpoint molds. Or maybe Buck shot here on this forum.

They both do good work. I have also heard of making a shallow tapered punch to flare gas checks a bit to get them started onto tight GC shanks. Just a thought.
