    Anyone casting the Eras Gone Bullet Molds .36 Colt heeled?

    I would like to buy one of their molds but obviously they are sold out. So while I wait I was wondering if anyone here has one and they can cast me some rounds to try in my conversion Remington.

    I do. It's a wonderful bullet and very easy to load naked or for making paper cartridges. I also use this bullet for my 38 Colt cartridges used in a Tailor's conversion cylinder. You will not be disappointed with it.

    Are you wishing to try them as percussion bullets or loaded in 38 Colt or 38 Long Colt cases? There is a "better" HBRN bullet to use in the 38 Long Colt which is a lot easier to load up. It's available from Old West ready to load or you can purchase a mold from there too. Either way you go, you will have a lot of fun.

    I've used both the oversized (.380) and .375 from Old West that were already cast to try out in single shot rifle and Colt double action revolver. They work very well. I was also using 38 Long Colt brass. Results may vary, but I had better luck with 3grs of Trail Boss than 3grs of Titegroup so far.

    There's someone in Las Vegas on G-broker that sells them and makes them from Eras Gone mold. Just type in Eras Gone and it'll come up with it.
