1942 Ideal Mould Chart Scans

[Dutchman]

I scanned this old Ideal Handbook last night. Get 'em while you can.
They're each about 350kb to 500kb. Nice and clear and in color.
Let me know if there's any problem viewing these.

[Fish_N_Russ]

does anyone know if there is a list with just the mold #s and then the caliber and weight?
Like a one-page thingy..?

Felix,

My Ideal Handbook, Number 34, 2nd Edition, is dated 1942.

Hope this helps.

Many thanks for this info - more for the reference file.

[felix]

Well, it appears we have the same book, then. My cover of my release does not have a date, I don't think. I looked, but could have overlooked. Thanks. ... felix

Maybe, Will can download that PDF and put it into Castpics because that is a default warehouse for this kind of stuff. ... felix

[dwtim]

That's a bunch for this! I'm collecting copies of all the mold catalogs I can find.

felix:

That's he same one; HB No. 34 was reprinted several times between 1940 and 1947. For those who don't have a copy, Cornell Publcations <www.cornellpubs.com> has just run a reprint of this issue, along with many others.

Fish_N_Russ:

Wouldn't fit: Ideal / Lyman made over 600 mould designs over the past 125 years or so, some in various lengths and other variations. The closest thing to what you want is the set of photos and data on CASTPICS from the 1973 Second Edition "Cast Bullet Handbook", but that cuts off in the early 500 series cherry numbers (we are now in the high -600's), and several numbers were re-used, after older designs were dropped.

Feel free to use the PDF file as you see fit.
