I have these old hand forged tongs for a boolit mould. A modern mould would not look right in these. I want to try one of the brass single round ball Jeff tanner moulds in this set of mould handles. If the brass Tanner mould fits, then I can order the round ball size I am wanting to get. Just trying to avoid spending $70 if this idea doesn't work. I'll pay shipping both ways.

I live in denmark and are game for your loan, are you?
If so the shoot me a PM

Bear in mind that the moulds wary in seze as bullet diameter increases!
They have at least 3 or 4 mould sizes not counting cannon calibers.

I use Lee mold handles for my Jeff Tanner mold - if that helps

Lee handles are not historically correct for what I'm trying to do. What I'm looking to do is use these original handles for demo's for the public. If the mould will fit and work, then I can use 'brass black' to take the shine off the brass mould halves and make it look like a period mould. I am looking to get a mould in .480 size for my rifle (50 caliber). I can demo pouring lead ball and make ball for my rifle at the same time.
