It is from their online design function, the mold I designed and purchased 11 years ago for my 45 Colt/454 Casull is my go to bullet, and it still casts as good today as it did new. This one will be on the XL aluminum blocks. The example below doesn't reflect the 75% meplat that mine will have.

I just completed my first casting session with a custom Mountain Mold myself.I used the software to build a 350 grain .477 Keith style GC bullet.


Couldn't be happier with the first results!

New bullet is on the left next to the Lee bullet I have been casting. Only issue I am having is the fact that my cylinder throats are just a little tight, and it takes just a little effort to fully chamber them, about a half a rim.
