Well, I'm not sure how his supply is doing. But for a long time he had essentially come to a halt in production due to supply of materials as I understand it. That said, he had a quite heavy back order. And I'm not sure how much of a pain it is to do a single mold versus a run of dozens of molds. With all that out of the way, really the only way to know is to ask. He normally has a pretty speedy response. Just shoot him an email or message him on this forum.

GOA and FPC have done more in the last decade than your NRA has done in it's entire existence... Support the ones that actually do something for you.
I’ve heard he is very busy and doesn’t do one off custom molds anymore.
Zero chance.
He is to busy filling orders for “ordinary“ moulds.
Even group buys are stalled, demand for plain vanilla solid moulds was just to much.
I spoke with Miha few times, visited his shop few times.
When he makes something new, he must order two reamers so he must pay 2x300€ just for reamers.

Gamsek,
Those are beautiful! Man, I really love his molds. I don't have 25, more like 5 or 6. But I'll tell you what they are quite nice. My first experience with Brass molds was with one made by Mountain Molds. It's also very nice. But nowhere near as refined as MP's. I wish I had the cash to go visit his shop. I'd love to see his CNC setup, as I have some experience with CAD and CNC machines. But that's a long trip for a poor country boy from Oklahoma.
I'm jealous of your collection.

i don't care how busy he is or how nice his molds are. i messaged him twice several months ago and i'm still waiting for a response to my message. i will shop elswhere!!
There must have been something wrong in the Matrix... Every time I've reached out he has been very prompt in his responses. There is a reason he has the reputation that he has in the community. You might try his email, it's right on the front page of his website (at the bottom of the page). As a matter of fact, last time I ordered he responded within an hour or so, and I received my mold in under a week from the time of order. The only time I've had been delivery time is order overnight circuit boards from China that I had shipped DHL 2 day.

You didn't say which mold you want....if it's a fairly popular design just sign up on the "notify me" field.
That will cost you nothing and you will get an email when it is back in stock.
Recently I wanted a MP 452-225 HP PB 4 cav and it was out of stock, I signed up and figured to wait a long time.
Just checked my email.....
I subscribed on Aug 15 and got the back in stock email Aug 21.....maybe it was just luck.
If you would post which one you want someone might have an idea how popular they are and how long it might be.

Awesome molds. Waiting now for delivery of another. My first choice for a HP mold. Second only to Accurate for a solid mold.

Are you sure that your e-mails got there in the first place? There are a lot of spam blockers and barracuda type email filters between us here in the U.S. and Slovenia.
I work in I.T. for a local utility company and some days I am amazed that anybody can e-mail anybody with all of the firewalls, filters, malware blockers, and rules between people.
Sideways thread drift/hijack: The 312-159 boolits in the above photo - anyone use these in 30-30 Win? If so, are they good in that caliber?
Wolfdog why don't you start a WTB thread for the mold? Lots of folks here with duplicates.
There was a discussion on one of FB casting sites and my friend from Australia wrote this about MP 312-159 HP:
“ Absolutely brilliant in the Winchester 94. I used to use the LEE 150 & 170g bullets, but the noses were very snug to chamber. I use the MP and sized them to .311" with no issues chambering, and great accuracy too. We are mainly using 9-10g Unique and shooting sillhouettes out to 200 yards, but they are a great small/medium game bullet as well.I'm sure the solid version would be effective on larger game too”
Gamsek: Thanks. I'll check out that mold.
