Today , I ordered a double cav. aluminum mold from Swede Nelson at NOE.

Both cavities will be plain base. I'm looking forward to shooting some of these.

I like it, and did not know they made that. I love the 311331, and that looks great for my 8mm Lebel if it dropped big enough. It seems to like heavy bullets seated way out, 8mm Max currently. Probably because the French used long bullets sticking way out there.

Something intriguing about that boolit, can't put my finger on it. What cartridge & rifle will be the lucky recipient of this boolit?

My bet is it is going to be a Turk.

Yes, tomme boy that would be a safe bet.
You're right again !

The new cast bullets from the NOE mold will be tested in my 8 X 57 mm Turk, Scout Rifle.

Swede ,

THANKS for getting my order out so quickly !

I hate it that you're not getting any range time, that's a bummer.

However, the fact that you're spending your time in the shop and making prompt shipments is one of the MANY reasons that you are so very popular on this forum.

Keep up the good work ! ( but remember.....All work and no play sure can make Johnny a dull boy.)
