Just another mould..or two.

[J.B.]

Too much down time with no shooting this year has of course meant I get up to mischief. Another mould sourced from Jim at BACo with a lot of assistance from Dave Gullo. Dropping back to single diameter pp I requested a .443 nose pour, cup base bullet to use with my thicker necked RMC brass in my 44/77. Typically the mould arrived and while I've yet to cast a projectile, it looks very tidy indeed. BACo mould ref # JIM433500. This primarily for the 1/17" rifle I hope to see again one day ( its in the U.S. ).
Not to be outdone.. I contacted Tom at Accurate Molds with regard a dd pp bullet for use in my 50/90. A base pour design...it went from enq to posted in 10 days ! Still on the 'slow plane' currently. This is the first Acc. Mold design I've had done in steel blocks as the curiosity was just too much. Most of my previous designs have come in brass and I couldnt fault them. Perfect form and function. Toms cat. design. #50-655D. This is for the 1/22" twist but I may go to a shorter version later to be more in line with the 473-500 grn bullet of the original loading. Just making conversation...our temperatures are averaging 95-105F now...and no shooting scheduled before late January...if bush fire restrictions dont cancel them. Fingers crossed. My best to all for the festive season. Stay safe, stay well and have a great Christmas.
