I have been thinking of getting a set of molds for my .475 Linebaugh 400 gr LFN GC from LBT. Can anyone tell me if they have done business with them and how do you like their molds. The price is better than having RCBS make me a custom set of molds.

The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

I am considering having a custom rifle mold made for a rifle being built for me by Montana Rifle Company. It will be chambered for the 505 Gibbs. I am considering a single cavity, FN, GC somewhere in the 500 Grain range. It will be either in Brass or Iron construction. I currently have a Lyman 515142 that throws a good boolit, but it is not GCed and I would like to have square lube grooves rather than the rounded grooves that I now have. I was wanting to know if one of our custom mold makers specialize in something like this? If it is not appropriate to ask that question here I will be happy to post this elsewhere on the forum. Thank you.

Check out Accuratemolds.com, I'm sure you could get what you need in a custom design there, if not already in the catalog.

I got a bunch of cast .358 recently that say "from NEC mold" and appear to be 210+gns. I need to weigh them but that is my guess. But the reason I care is they were really accurate. The guys card said 12 gns Unique .358 from NEC mold CCI primer RP brass. Made a few up after checking some books. Anyone heard of that brand of mold? Can you point me to them? Thank you!
Can anyone recommend a mold maker that would be willing to make single cavity molds for my 4-bore and 2-bore rifles?
Diameters are 1.000" and 1.326", respectively. Dan at Mountain Molds thought about it for a while and decided he didn't want to mess with it.
Anyone?

I made this mould for a 1" Hotchkiss cannon. The owner intended to shoot BP only and wanted something with a large lube groove, and would work well enough for his needs.
I have handles that will work on this size of mould as well.
If you have drawings or samples, I may be able to help.

RR Rick, that looks like just the ticket! Ideally, I'd like a hollow base nose pour mold, as I want to duplicate Col. Fosbury's Collapsing Bullet. I'll get to work on drawings.

Looking for the H&G #503 mold for my 44 special. Two mold makers show it on their website but also out of stock now for a long time. Is there any recommdations to someone who could do this on a custom order? Just tired of waiting is all.

Does a hollow point conversion outfit qualify as an honorable mention here? I have not seen his work first hand [yet].

Anybody know off hand who offers molds using their designs but with Magma Engineering blocks so mold can run on a magma machine. I know I saw it somewhere while looking over molds from someone months back?
