      Is there any interest for round ball molds for 50, 54 or 58 caliber round balls?

        I feed my .54 Hawken and .45 cap & ball revolvers with a couple of Lee moulds but may be interested in moulds in a slightly different diameter.

          This thread would probably do better in the regular Group Buy Discussions.

            I need something in the neighborhood of .630 – .635 for a 16 bore flintlock. Would love to be able to order any custom size I want from Al. Don’t know what the equipment setup is that is needed to do this – but am sure it is a costly outlay. I believe there is a market. Have purchased one from a maker in England – but got a mold that was .006 out of round. His replacement was .004 out of round. Not too bad – but would hope for better. Then again, I am not sure what todays capabilities are for a truly round ball.

              I would like to have round ball moulds in .350″, .390″, .454″, .464″, and .570″. I really don’t care that much about gang moulds that could make a dozen and a half at a time. I’d just like to have moulds that actually make round balls that are round, and all the same size.

                  I’d like to have a chain mould 6 375s and 6 454s . The ultimate for me would be  375,454,490 all in 1.

                    I used to buy aluminum  Rapine round ball molds when they were in business. They were my favorite. Wish someone would start making them in the sizes they had.

                      How about a multi-cavity #1 buckshot mold. No body that I know has made one and it out penetrates 00 buck.

                        There are three sizes that make sense for shotgun, #0 and #1 and .678″

                          I would be happy with a .490″ that was to size and ROUND.

                            I would be in for a .451 that was also to size and round :)
