    Tell me what I'm missing...

    So I took the plunge and ordered an NOE mould.

    As I'm sure so many of you know it's fantastic quality and capable of wonderful boolits.

    So here's what I'm wondering. I ordered the 44 caliber mould

    https://noebulletmolds.com/site/shop...5-4-cavity-pb/

    Why can't I find a comparable 45 caliber? I only need .452 but I would take what I could get but I can't seem to find any. Am I blind?

    Anyway, go to the link you posted and click 'shop'
    There is a bunch of .452 and .453 molds they offer.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Or this one:

    https://www.accuratemolds.com/bullet...bullet=45-240B

    Get it exactly the size you want with your favorite alloy in any mold material and cavity number.

    I saw the .454 molds on NOE but isn't that too much to size down to .452?

    And all of the molds listed on that page are sold out. How long until they're back in? I see no place to be notified.

    When I viewed the link, I see a phone number to call them. Or click on the "Contact" link and get an email address to pose your questions. Then you can tell them what you want and they may be able to tell you when it might be available.

    I size my Accurate 35-115Y from .360 to .357. I size after it's PC'd. Like a half hour after they come out of the oven. Still pretty soft. If you wait a day they're pretty hard. My H&G 68 gets sized and traditional lube about half an hour after casting. It's sized @ .002.

    Go to accuratemolds.com tell Tom what shape and and weight and he will draw it up for you and go for from there. However he has a huge 45 caliber section in his catalog you can probably find one there. He is top notch.i will only buy his molds
