I've been looking for one of these for a little while, if there is anyone out there willing to part with one please let me know.
 
On a side note if I may:sneaky:
H&N Barracuda Match come in at 21.14Gr and are superb for FAC air rifles, very well made and consistent. Perfect for +25Joules.
 
Very useful piece of kit I reckon, Lead is fairly common and being able to make your own ammo is a definite bonus.
 
If there are any other pellet mould owners out there I would be interested in different manufacturers, caliber sizes or grain weight pellet moulds, even just photos or information. It could be used to start a new thread if it was moved across into the shooting section.

It is on its way, have fun! I also have a .700 ball mold from when i bought my first muzzleloader, it was a 12 bore Bengal carbine. A rather crude Indian made copy of an Enfield 1853 cavalry carbine it had a 25" barrel & recoil with the 1 1/4 oz patched lead ball was a bit lively & the muzzleflash huge. It had a tendency to misfire which was quite disconcerting as once the hammer had fallen & popped the cap if it didnt go off you had to keep the thing to your shoulder in case it went off later. In the end i found that the touchhole below the nipple was misaligned with the nipple & managed to cure it. Sold it years ago but have fond memories. I will be keeping the ball mold as it is a handy thing;)
