      Would like to see what interest there is in my bullets! What are you looking for?

      I have three new bullets, a departure from what I typically work on, three bullets for bolt guns. I recently started to shoot my 300 Savage and 7.62×39 offerings and I’m working on a 308 Win. Any interest in these as NOE has expressed their interest in cutting them.

      What about my existing designs. There are a number listed here but with little follow up. Are you still interested, what do you want to see?

        I have zero regrets buying my 350 Magnum. Only wish I would’ve had the extra funds to purchase a 358 Winchester and 35 Whelen when Ruger had them in production.

        That would have completed my 35 caliber obsession.

        I almost bought a Ruger Frontier Scout chambered in 358 Win. It was NIB at a very fair price but hesitated that little bit that cost me the rifle.

          308 Win as well as 7.62×39 would be what I’d be interested in most.

            I’ve also recently developed an interest in the 350 Rem Mag and what I’ve looked at has placed the bullet near 255-grains. I actually never target a weight when I look at a chamber. I let the features of the chamber and case neck dictate weight.

            I’m wondering how well this 255 gr. design would work in a 358 WIN… I picked up a Savage 99 a couple of years ago and would like to see it shoot a heavyweight RD design.

              With the 99, not well. The problem would be remaining with the confines of the Magazine. This bullet would have two strikes against it for the 358 Win in 99; bullet OAL and bullet body extending into the cartridge case below the neck.

                Anything in the works for a RD for the 6.5×55 Swedish? At the presumed lower speeds due to the rifling twist, A big, wide metplat would increase the killing power a lot. There’s nothing out there with a wide metplat.

                No nothing below 30 caliber in the bolt guns.

                Hmmm can I ask why? I would like to see a WFN243HP??

                  I am interested in the .308 and 300 Savage.

                      Are there any Ranch Dog bullets yet to fit 7.62×51’s, 303’s or 7.62×54’s with 314″ to 316″ bores? I could surely use one in 180gr to 200gr. I’d prefer a regular type lube groove but, with the introduction of Ben’s Liquid Lube, I’m changing my lube views. Still forming my opinion of micro-bands. The one RD micro-band mould I have is the one for the 7.62×39 and casts too small for my SKS. PC helped but, just OK now.

                        I’ve not designed a designed a 7.62×51 but may be Swede would look into it.

                          What bullets have you designed for the 30-06? I was thinking a 180gr with a decent sized metplat would be good for the 06′.

                            I haven’t done one.

                              How about a heavy .32 revolver bullet? 

                              Say, 120-135 grains.
                              Flat point.  Long nose.
                              Targeted at .32 H&R, .327 Federal, and .32-20, with possible use in .32 S&W Long.

                              Elsewhere, I’ve been compiling a list of cylinder lengths for production .327 Federal revolvers (Charter, S&W, Ruger, Taurus, Freedom Arms, USFA, and I think I missed on).  If you’d like the information, for any reason, I can pass it along.

                                I suspect that Swede Nelson would appreciate the data but I’m not going to be working on any new designs because I need fufil a promise that I made to Swede. What I will be doing is getting back on track with the loading data for all of NOE’s bullets. It is a huge task that will probably take me at least a year to complete.
