      Accurate molds can cut this, I was wondering if NOE could as well?  I have one Accurate mold and I don’t like it.  I have many NOE molds and love ’em all! Any other people interested in this?

        Looks like my xmas present might involve something in 8mm French Revolver.

        If so, something like the OP but a proper round nose would be great.

          Alternatively, Al, could you open one of these in plain base out to .331? if so, how much more would it cost?

          Or, thinking about it, could it simply be cut with 1 driving band less? By my calculations that would knock 31 grains off of the weight.

          Voilà, +/- 100gn 8mm French revolver bullet for no tooling cost ;)

            I use that design(PB and GC combo mold) now in my Lebel rifle and revolvers.  He cut some to .328″ in the group buy.  All of my Lebels(R35 carbine, French Ordnance revolver, Belgian constabulary revolver) have the same hair over .327″ groove diameter.
