Ken, is that a 30-40 Krag Mould? That thing is way cool!

[Pressman]

This Armory mould is for the 50 US Army cartridge. The one pictured above maybe for the Krag, I will need to look up the numbers in the Ideal handbook to verify that.

In reference to response #10, would that be a Meepos Speedlube? There's a similar looking one on page 239 of Keith's "Sixguns"

No, the Meepos design is very different than this.
