    need a big (Imean B-I-G) boolit mould...

    I have a ten bore double barrel Paradox Rifle. My former boolit supplier died, and his widow sold all of his stuff.
    Any suggestions on a source for a quality mould? 20:1 alloy, boolit diameter is .7934" or so. About an ounce.

    thanks,

    Rich

    You're looking for a Special BP mould/guy with ball for 78-84 cal .

    Goodsteel did some work with a cyl bore 10 ga .

    For whatever it's worth a .690 in pure is right at 1-1/4 oz .

    I'm not sure what you mean by about an ounce. A .800" ball would weight about 800 grains. This mold from Accurate is about 990 grains.

    A 10 Bore Parradox?!? We NEED Pics!
    Yes, Good Steel got a round ball mold for his 24" barreled 10 ga double that I gave to him. I think he got the mold from some place in the UK.

    I queried the net and found a Ten bore is 0.775 inches
    These folks make round ball molds
    Discussed back in 2015 https://castboolits.gunloads.com/sho...0Ga-slug-loads
    Reduce the issue, ignore the drama
