    460-425RFGC Group Buy is Here.

    460-425RFGCGroup Buy is Now Open.


    Enough people have expressed an interest in the Ranch Dog #3 Poll to run this.

    This Group Buy is for a 460-425gr Gas Checked Round Flat Nosed boolit that is a lube groove copy of the Ranch Dog TLC 460-425 RF bullet designed for the 45-70 Govt. & 450 Marlin rifles. The molds will be produced by Night Owl Enterprises (NOE) in their standard 1-5 cavity molds AND the RG Hollow Point molds.

    The 460-425RFGC Group Buy will close on January 10th 2010. It will run longer than normal to get past Christmas. If we don’t have 15 orders by then, the close date will be extended until we do.

    Flat Nosed Boolit




    Hollow Pointed Boolit




    Moulds will be machined from 2024 Aluminum
    Used for high strength structural and aircraft applications.
    Tensile strength range 30,000 to 63,000 psi
    Sprue plate (blued), alignment pins, and hardware will be
    carbon steel.



    The cost will be as follows:

    Standard Molds
    Single cavity mould $68.00 Ea.
    Double cavity mould $72.00 Ea.
    Three cavity mould $79.00 Ea.
    Four cavity mould $85.00 Ea.
    Five cavity mould $92.00 Ea.
    Hollow pointing one cavity and furnishing a double ended pin would be $35.00 extra.
    If you want to fashion different HP profiles, an extra blank pin would be $1.50

    RG Molds
    Two cavity RG2 HP mould $96.00 Ea.
    Includes one set of hollow point pins
    and one set of flat nose pins.
    If you want to fashion different HP profiles for the RG2 an extra blank pin set of two (2) would be $4.

    Four cavity RG4 HP mould $126.00 Ea.
    Includes one set of hollow point pins
    and one set of flat nose pins.
    If you want to fashion different HP profiles for the RG4 an extra blank pin set of four (4) would be $8.

    Shipping and handling will be $10 per order and shipped priority mail. If you live outside the United States contact me, and I will work with you.



    Lead time is 4-5 weeks after Group Buy closes. Tooling will be ordered once we get to 15 paid orders so don’t delay.

    Instructions for using the Group Buy order system page are HERE.

    Use the Group Buy order system HERE to place your order. Use the link provided or use the link at the bottom of the page. Print two copies of the order sheet and mail both to me with your payment. Once we are ready to go, I will place the order with NOE. The molds will be shipped to me and I will distribute them. I will accept bank check, money order or PayPal + $4.50. If using PayPal contact me first.

    We can get gas checked and non gas checked cavities cut in the same mould. Specify on the order sheet what your preference is.

    The mold is machined to use LEE Commercial 6-Cavity handles (not included).
    A Lyman, RCBS type top punch is furnished with each mould as well as a sample of Bull Plate sprue plate lube.

    Visitors from other forums are welcome to participate in this group buy.
    Email me at scifijim - at - gmail.com
    Do the normal voodoo with the address to make it work, I don't want spambots to skim for my address.

    Please leave a post here or PM me when you order and I will add you to the list.

    I will post a running list of confirmed orders with username and options and a list of zip codes that payments have been received from in the next post.
    Thanks
    Jim

    I put up a group buy for both weights. Since they don't close until January, my hope is that those that want both will have time to get both.
    Thanks

    There are eight orders already with tow months to go. We are doing pretty good already. I think you are right though. After Christmas more people will be interested.
