Is there anyone out there that can copy a Money Bullet (round nose-no Metplat)? Accurate and LBT can’t I need a mold made that will drop at .383 with wheel weight so I can size it to .381/382 for my Pedersoli High Wall. Buffalo arms molds are not big enough either and they won’t modify and I don’t want to add the tape to the mold route. Any suggestions in a mould maker?

I'd try Accurate first.

Ask NOE if he can make a oversize mold for you, I have heard some molds he can.
Ask about this one, oversize.

Brooks will cut you one. The last money mould I got from Buffalo arms was cut to my specs for a very small add fee and it cast exactly what I ordered.

Boomer out of Canada made me a very good .40 Money bullet but shipping is expensive and he only cuts moulds from a cherry unless he has changed.

I sent BACO an email and haven’t got a response asking just that. I assumed they were not interested

I tried the e-mail and it got returned. I talked to sales person at BAC and double verified mould style # and change I wanted in nose and top drive band dia. Extra charge was not much and it cast a round bullet the exact size ordered in 20/1 alloy. No need to size it.

Steve Brooks, 406-782-5114, he has cut several iron molds for me. Works of art.

Both Steve Brooks and Buffalo Arms Co (BAC) make this design bullet mold - day in and day out.
Both can adjust the measurements to meet your needs and hit them dead on.

A better iron mold can't be had at any price now that Paul Jones retired. On a one to one hundred scale, I would rate the Brooks and BAC products at a 98 or 99 with a Paul Jones mold being the gold standard at 100.

Contact either Brooks or BAC and never look back. It will be a joy to cast with.

I would have a lot more Jones moulds if I had known he was about to retire.

Yes, me too. I had maybe every base covered I'll likely need before Paul retired, but I still wish he was making them. You never know where your interests will take you.
I have picked up a few used P.J. molds when at a match here and there and find them for sale. I have a few I don't really need, but they make good trading stock.

The Steve Brooks and Buffalo Arms molds are very good.


I like Hoch molds and Pioneer molds too.
