Here's some pics of the ideal mold, hopefully that will help.

The more I look at it I still believe that it's an Ideal 287221 which comes in 7 different weights. Could this be the grand daddy of that mold and instead of the numbers standing for the diameter &...

georgewxxx,
I belive your right and I've been misreading it. It actually appears to be an Ideal 28512, the 0 on the end looks like a different stamp than the other ones. It's a flat point with...

I picked up an Ideal 285120 mold and can't find any info on it and it's not listed on the Buffalo Bullet Mold chart. It's a 1 pc mold and handles, single cavity with 5 lube grooves. It looks...

Put me down for one as well, just don't tell my wife....

Put me down for a GC .461 Thanks

I picked up a lyman tru line junior press with 2 sets of dies in it. One set is marked 166 and has a piece of tape between them marked 257 roberts which would be correct for those dies. The other...

What's your opinion of putting aluminum bedding blocks in a factory or replacement stock that doesn't have them? Does it really make that much of a difference in accuracy?

I have a synthetic...

The dirt here is a clay mixture the deeper you go the more clay, no sand so that shouldn't be a problem smelting it. I was hoping to take as little dirt home as possible but after reading your...

I made my first attempt to sift for range lead on an earthen berm and it didn't go very well. The rounds mainly fired on it are 9mm, 40 cal, 223 & 00 buck. I need some tips and techniques on the...

Our politicians changed to the far left/right who work for special interests a long time ago. Every one of them speak of change and fixing what's wrong but that's hard to do when they're the...

Thanks to all of you for your input. I believe I'll have to go with casting some and see if my s&w 27 likes one over the other.

Until I started browsing around on here I never could figure out...

I went to my local scrap yard and he had some lead put back for me. It was in sheets about 1/16" thick and had been cut up into squares. It looks like it came off of a roof as flashing maybe and...

I'm in the process of piecing together what I need to start casting and picking up stuff when I run across it. I've ended up with 2 different moulds for a .358 148 gr button tip wc and wanted...

Thanks for all the information. If the 41 cal mold I was looking at does cast to small because of the coating would I be able to size it down to use in my 40 just using that sizer or would it need...

I found some lyman molds I thought about trying to buy but they have what is being called an Armoly finish on them. Looks like they have been taken apart and coated with some stuff that's silver...

I've had my midway tumbler for about 15 years and sent it off to have the motor replaced when they had the recall. Never had a problem out of it before or after. They do have great customer service...

I like to buy rifle 5K at a time and pistol 10K at a time, only thing I get 1K of is 209's. Same way with powder in 8lb kegs. The downside is I hate is storing that much stuff in my closet until it...

Red River Rick,
They were on a magma and the mold keys, didn't know they were called that, have the two socket head screws holding them in place. If I'm reading into what your saying correctly,...

I bought a couple saeco molds that were set up for use on an automatic casting machine. I thought I could use a set of lee 6 cavity handles or similar and drill holes through the sides of the jaws...

I had several white paper bags of hodgdon 4831 a friend had bought at an auction about 10 years ago. I called hodgdon to make sure the stuff would even still be good since it didn't even have a...

Thanks for the input, that's what I figured but wanted some other opinions. I guess I'll give it a try and if it doesn't work out I'll sell or swap it for something I can use.
