CLOSED .454 RB mold

[Justin.44]

I would like to find a reasonably priced .454 round ball mold. Would prefer a 2 cavity mold but would consider others. If anyone has one laying around that you're not using let me know. Thanks. Justin

 

[Justin.44]

Anyone? Can't find any in stock..

 

[Justin.44]

Bump

I just bought a 2 cavity ball and bullet mold from Dixie Gun Works for 78.00 shipped.

Went to The Log Cabin to look to see what they had and found this:

2021 - DUE TO OVERWHELMING DEMAND THIS YEAR MANY LEE & LYMAN BULLET MOLDS ARE OUT OF STOCK. WE HAVE SEVERAL ORDERS IN TO BOTH MANUFACTURERS BUT WAIT TIMES ARE LONG. THE WEBSITE DOES NOT REFLECT THE QUANTITIES ON HAND. PLEASE CONTACT US TO CHECK CURRENT STOCK.

I don’t have the link but all I did was type .44 in search to find it. They are backlogged in shipping by a month. I also find molds on Ebay as well. It is a manure shoot as to the prices but Dixie is about as cheap as they come nowadays. They are getting scarce. I’m still trying to find a Johnston and Dow bullet mold. Also these brass molds are not perfect so these are good for plinking but not so much for match shooting.

Bump... still looking for a .454 RB mold, thanks.

Justin:

Hold on. It will take me a day or two, but I will check my inventory to see if I have the mold you need. No gouging, I would like to help out if I can. But I gotta do some digging.

While your at it, I’m looking for a .44 cal Johnston and Dow mould if you happen to have one. Thanks.

Thank you! I'm almost out of .454 and now that I've been casting my own I refuse to buy store bought balls again if at all possible!

 

[ADK Bigfoot]

My repeated tests of swaged store bought versus my cast round balls leaves the store bought bullets in the dust. Roundness, consistency, are much better. I only shoot my own.

EMF also has those brass molds. It has a conical in it as well, though I have never shot either. Sadly the days of $28 Lee molds may be gone.

 

[Wolfman0125]

EMF? I’m not sure who that is. Do you have a link?

 

[Throwdown58]

Mine are actually coming tomorrow.

Note that EMF calls you to confirm the order and get the 3 numbers for your card. I have done a few orders with them lately.

 

[Wolfman0125]

I actually ordered this one from Dixie Gun Works. But I’m looking for one that casts the true Johnston and Dow bullets.

FYI Dixie orders are a good month behind, but they are fulfilling them.

Hey Mark Hubbs from Eras Gone bullet molds, where the Johnston and Dow molds come from, is a member here @Eras Gone . He could help you figure out when one would be available.

The web store right now says not till April on that mold. The .44 Kerr in a couple weeks though.
