[Hardcast]

Don't know if I can scrape up more funds for another mold or not, as I am already in for 3 group buys. But, either way, I would like to know the estimated weight of this boolit in hollow point, and with what alloy? Also, is this the Glen Larson design or different? Thanks.

[Blammer]

OK, this is updated, see last post.

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

PM sent...put me down for and RG2 HP mold. Thanks!

[hicard]

If I were to order a RG4 mould, could I get 2 GC and 2 PB?

[SwedeNelson]

hicard

We can do that!

Thanks
Al Nelson

[Blammer]

This buy is not limited to just five!

Get it while you can!

[hicard]

Great, I will order a RG4 with 2 PB and 2 GC.
Payment sent 10/20/09

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

I would like my RG2 with 1 GC and 1 PB if that is OK. Thanks!

[tdd4570]

I would like a 5 cavity, all PB.

Thanks

Dave

[dragonrider]

I will take an RG2 and an extra set of pins. Let me know when to send funds.

[hicard]

Just checked out the group buy order section and I assume this buy hasn't made it their yet?

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

This GB was kind of a spur of the moment. It is a re-run. From what I understand, NOE will do any of the previous group buys as long as there are 5 molds ordered.

[SwedeNelson]

IllinoisCoyoteHunter:aka BB

That about it.
Just let me know what you want and we will
do are best to make it happen.

Will close this buy Friday and send out PM's with
payment requests.

Thanks
Swede Nelson

[Blammer]

after a question I was inclined to double check what I've posted as far as wt of the boolits I've cast from this mould.

MY hp's, with ww alloy (and how I have the pin set, it's adjustable, on the Single cavity HP option only) I cast some at 175gr and cast some at 170gr HP.
I've set the pin deep to cast some light wt ones, and they came in at 155gr. Nice to know you have a somewhat adjustable HP pin. This adjustable HP pin is only available on the single cavity HP option. The RG's are not adjustable for pin depth, although you can get other pins that are different lengths.

The regular flat point comes in at 185gr.

[Jasper]

i NEED a 2cav HP mold (both cav's HP).


$96+3%, correct?

[SwedeNelson]

The hollow points I have on
hand from my WW alloy and
a RG2 are 168Gr.

Jasper
that would be a RG2
I'll get you on the list.

Swede Nelson

[Blammer]

Swede the RG2 I have they all wt at 170gr with my ww alloy.

[happy7]

I am tempted on this one. How long do I have to get in on it?

How does it work with the extra set of pins. I am thinking I would also like a pin set to go deeper and have a narrower mouth for a softer alloy. Do they come long enough make a hole about to the first lube groove? Do I need to find a machinest to put the profile on it I want?

[mick27]

hi swede,

i'd like 1- RG-2 HP for 96.00+ ship..
should be great in my .357 herrett !! will send PM also..

thanks,
mick27
mick jones

[SwedeNelson]

Will close the buy Friday.
Order will go in to the shop the week after.
You would want to get a blank pin set and
have it machined.

mick27

Your on the list.

Thanks
Swede Nelson

[Hardcast]

Swede the RG2 I have they all wt at 170gr with my ww alloy.

168-170 grs sounds good. Blammer, have you shot any for groups?

[Halfbreed]

Swede,
Put me down for a RG-4, HP pb, if the 1400fps is not too hot for the pb, otherwise make it a gc. That is $126.00 correct?
John

[Blammer]

not real goups yet but it shot about as well as my "other" 360180 boolit

and here is an expansion (aka explosion test) in water jugs at 25 yds.
5 shot group

http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g81/blammer8mm/Targets/DSCN7644.jpg

[Hardcast]

Thanks Blammer, that is one good lookin boolit. I assume that is WW alloy. If you want your boolit to stay together, you need less antimony in your alloy. If you are shooting targets or varmits, then it does not matter if your boolit fragments or not. I guess I'm gonna have to get one of these. :)

[Hardcast]

Swede, E-mail sent for one RG2 hollow point mold.

[Blammer]

Yes that's WW alloy, air cooled at 1700fps into water jugs 25 yds away.

[happy7]

I have to have one of these. I don't want to sound anxious, but the fact is I am. I can't wait to try this hollowpointing system. I have high hopes. I understand the tooling is already in hand. What kind of lead time are we looking at then.

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

I am curious too, cuz this is gonna be my new deer boolit...if it gets to me in time! :grin:

[wdr2]

Any idea how well this design would work in a Colt Python? The nose is the correct length. Can this be loaded to high enough velocity in a 357 Mag? Does it need a GC?

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

I load plain base boolits up to about 1200 fps in 357 with good results. Anything above that I would think a GC would be advantageous. You can get a gas check cavity and a plain base cavity in the same mold if that is what you want (that is what I am doing).

[wdr2]

Any idea how fast this bullet can be driven in a 357 Mag revolver?

[Blammer]

now the "dish" hp is another matter all together. The dish in the RG2 or 4 will ROCK!
I like it for hunting!
(may want to get some "extra" pins to make this, that's what I did)

Don't know if you can see it, but it's a very "shallow" hp, the same as that was on the 358318 GB from NOE.

http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g81/blammer8mm/Cast%20boolits%20fun/DSCN7691.jpg

This was recovered from the fifth water jug 25 yds away while traveling at 1700 fps. Much more hold together and penetration. WW alloy air cooled.

http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g81/blammer8mm/Cast%20boolits%20fun/DSCN7697.jpg

[Blammer]

I have no idea how fast it can be pushed in a revolver.

I'll have to get out my wheel gun and give it a go.

[Jasper]

just realized i'd never specified, i would like my mold set up for gaschecks (both cavities). i think i'd like 2 sets of blank pins as well (just in case i get inventive...I like blammer's idea for a dished HP.

i'll be sending $$ tomorrow.

thanks!

[wamin]

I'm up for a
RG4 HP mould $126.00 Ea.
Includes one set of hollow point pins
and one set of flat nose pins.
Extra blank pin set $8.00

[msp2640]

Saw this post and didn't think I "needed" another mould. After viewing the pics of the finish boolits, I'm convinced I must have this mould - Thanks Blammer. Swede - I'll PM you as well, but could I get a RG4 mould the same as Hicard (set up w/ 2 PB and 2 GC cavities) - Thanks for all you're doing for us - Bill L

[square butte]

Swede, Put me down for one RG4 HP set up with 2 gas check and 2 plain base cavities. Thanks

[ph4570]

[fivegunner]

Hi, it`s thursday night here, a few hours before the deadline I want to get on the list. I want a RG 4 cavity HP gaschecked with one extra set of pins. I would like to pay by paypal.:cbpour:[smilie=s:

[Hardcast]

OK, Blammer convinced me, I would like an extra set of blank pins for the RG2.

[Ventnburn]

Me also

This looks like a real useful bullet for the 35s, and I have 3 rifles and several handguns to shoot it in.

Swede, sending a PM to put me in for an RG2 HP, both GC. Will try to get you a money order going out this weekend (have to get out between honeydews).

I haven't seen anything on shipping, what's the details?

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

swede will let us know how and when to pay. :)

for the hell of it, **this is my first GB**, what's the usual wait on shipping times? (just got my gaschecks last week, and got all my .357mag brass ready to rock)

[GrizzLeeBear]

Hey Swede, just curious, got an ETA on this one?

[kirb]

looks like I missed this one once again if any one wants to sale out let me know.

Kirb

[Blammer]

kirb, keep an eye on NOE's inventory for sale list, he may have a few extra for sale after the run.

Any update on this?

[happy7]

How about an update.

[SwedeNelson]

We are about 2 to 2 1/2 weeks behind.
Will try to work this one in as soon as we can.
It looks like another 2 weeks at best.

Swede Nelson

Thanks for the update. I appreciate it!

[hicard]

Any word on this one?

[j20owner]

According to the NOE Delivery Schedule in Vendor section, this one is next in line. Swede commented they had some problems with the 22 cal mold, and this one is after that one in the list.

[Screwbolts]

Well the 22 Cal mold is a thing of beauty, and Drops Boolitz at a real fast pace. :-) They even Shoot Good to boot :-) :-)

I am really looking forward to this mold. Thanks Al,

This is an excellent boolit. This is the group I got with 13.0gr of LilGun in a .357 Marlin lever rifle. My scope was zeroed with 157gr commercial jacketed. The point of aim was the bullseye.

This is a group shot from a 10" TC at 100 yrds. Approx. 1500 fps. I've shot this same load from a FA 353 revolver and a Rossi 357 20". Out of the Rossi vel. was 1703 fps. This mold was from the first run. You won't be unhappy that you choose this mold.

Started out as a SGB (Small Group Buy) and turned into 50 moulds.
As I was told last June before I ran the 360180 for the first time, "Offer it and they will come." :)

It's a very popular boolit. I am surprised that it is not as available from the BIG commercial outfits.

[Heavy lead]

If there is any extra's (especially a 5 cavity solid point) I'd love one of these.

[That'll Do]

If there is any extra's (especially a 5 cavity solid point) I'd love one of these.

I'd also be interested in purchasing an extra mold. I wish I could've been in on this GB.

[bushwack]

I would be interested also.

[IllinoisCoyoteHunter]

Hey Al, just wondering if it is too late to order an extra set of blank pins if we already have a moldcoming our way? No big deal if you can't, as I should have thought of it before...duh! I DEFINATELY DO NOT wanna be a pain in the rear to you! Thanks!

[SwedeNelson]

If you ordered the sizing tool, is it being shipped with this mold?

[shdwlkr]

Swede
Has the shop figured out yet that you can get orders in faster than they can turn out the molds? Ha Ha bet they thought this would never catch on.
When you build quality and then throw in a fair price things have just got to get busy. Waiting for one of your molds is like waiting for Christmas to get here well worth the wait.

My second GB from NOE arrived in the mail today. Can't thank Al enough for making this happen. I got a RG4 2PB/2GC. Just sitting here looking at it - craftsmanship is outstanding, design is great and couldn't be happier. Will be a bit of time before I can put it to work, but just can't wait. Makes me really wish I knew about this site and NOE before I bought my first few Lee moulds, never would have wasted the money. Thanks again for the Cast Boolits site and NOE for outstanding work.

I got mine too. With the gas check seater. Now I have to figure out how to use the GCS

Did a small run this AM before going to my brothers Super Bowl party. Boolits look great and are right on the money @ .360 cast out of 50/50 WW/lino Weight looks good at approx 179 grs with that alloy. Nice looking mold that makes nice round uniform boolits! I can't wait for some warm weather to give them a try. Thanks again Al.

[GrizzLeeBear]

Got mine yesterday. WOW! All aluminum molds are NOT created equal! The craftsmanship and quality of the NOE molds is so far ahead of any of my Lee molds its not fair to even consider them in the same catogory. This mold was definitely worth the wait. I don't know when I will get around to casting with it, but I am sure looking forward to it! Fantastic work Al! [smilie=w::drinks:

[Halfbreed]

I just found mine in the mailbox today. Fantastic workmanship, hopefully I will be able to fire up the pot soon.
Now if you just made a .461" 420 fngc design. Man I would be on that one too.

[JFE]

Mine arrived along with the GC seater. Both are very nice pieces of work.

[Halfbreed]

Timbuck, thanks for the notice, but I have a Lee gb at .461 and it is a tad bit small, I have to beagle it to keep it from keyholing, that is without any sizing.
This is for a 458 win mag. A CZ 550 safari mag.

Got mine sometime this week(was waiting when I got home)and my gas check seater was in there to,superb craftsmanship on both,well done NOE!

Hi SwedeNelson,


Looks like a lovely Boolit..!


Are Molds available which would have no Gas Check provision? Just for a plain Boolit suitable say for .38 Special or non-gas-check .357 Magnum?

i want an rg4 if still available

[SciFiJim]

longrifle,
This boolit is only being run in a brass mold group buy right now. The link is.....
