I coulda sworn that someone planned to add a sticky that kept a running list of custom 6 banger molds, a drawing, bullet info and the person taking care of business on each of the custom orders.

Course I coulda been wrong too!

I'd like to see it. I have been trying to figure out the designation for the .44 mold, with the three crimp grooves. I have several others I no longer remember the proper designation. I should have marked the molds, as I got them.

I have that one listed as the 432-250 RFN. Tony

I believe it's a 434-250 RFN I have the original receipt taped to the lid. Sitting right next to me as I type.

Very good little bullet for me so far. It'll probably replace my 429421 as a deer bullet this year. (Unless the 6 banger group buy get me a mould first)

That is the very mold I was looking at that stirred me to as this question.

Thanks, guys. I'll engrave the mold tonight.

By the way, it shoots great!

that had each custom 6 cavity mold that has been ordered listed.
The Honcho, a drawing as it was posted and maybe issues/testimonials.

Issues need to real, for instance with Lee 429-310;

I can NOT load to second crimp groove because it will NOT chamber in my Redhawk or Super Redhawk. NOT too long for cylinder. will NOT load in the cylinder due to throat.

Or for the original 35-180 mold . . . interferes with loading in 357 Mag Blackhawk and TC Contender barrel. I have yet to try it in the 357 Max and 357 Herrett where I really plan to make use of it.

If one notices I plan to keep repeating this thread til someone thinks the iea is original or has merit and post it as if were a good idea.
