      I would like a mold to cast a copy of Beartooth Bullets 45-70 pile driver Jr 460-425gr WFN with a .375 meplat Gas Check bullet.  I’m not sure if this has been offered or not.  I did see the Ranch Dog offering but it did not have the .375 meplat.  Would there be any others interested in this?

      Regards,

      Zeus77

        I have 350gr and 405gr copies cut by Accurate. The 350gr would be good as well as the 425gr. Nice big metplat with a negative nose tolerance.

          Wow, I cant believe no one else is interested in this bullet mold.  Both Pile Driver’s (525 grain and 425 grain) cycle fantastic from all my lever rifles and from my Siamese mauser smoother than any other bullet I have used.  Penetration is fantastic!  If it wasn’t for bearthooth’s LONG lead time, this is the only bullet I would consider not casting for myself.  Last order was placed in February and just received last week.  I’m hoping to get enough interest so I can get my own mold without going somewhere else.  Chime in if you would be interested in getting this bullet mold on the mill…

          Thanks,

          Zeus

              I’ve been using Ranch Dog’s TLC460-350-RF in my .45-70s, and like the big meplat. NOE produces these now. Even though it is a tumble lube design, I run through my Lubrasizer and use White Label’s Carnuba Red with great success. Dropped a large 4×4 whitetail with it last December. It is what I’ll use this year too. This lighter weight bullet is easier on both the lead pot and shoulder.
