There aren't many stock .338 GC moulds to choose from and I already have a Lee 220gr 1R for my 338/06 AI but found two NOE's I'm considering.Just curious if you have a NOE and how you like it compared to any other brands.

There a work of art and cast great bullets. I have one of the NOE 38 cal. double crimp groove 158 gr. .360" handgun molds for about a year that cast either HP or FN bullets and have no complaints.

I too just recently picked up an NOE mould. It truly is beautiful. I have been too busy to do any casting with it yet but here is a pic.

Those NOE molds look like jewelry! I would be tempted to store it in a safety deposit box! Looks like I might have to break down and get one myself. My old NEI, Saeco, and Lyman/Ideal molds still work though. But still, those NOE molds...

Noe molds work as well as any of the molds I have. I highly recommend them. They are built to last a few lifetimes.

They look pretty and cast some darn good bullets.

I have 5 so far and am waiting for one for the 35 Whelen.

You won't go wrong with one of these.

Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.

When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.

PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.

That's a mighty good looking 338 offering have you shot any? I think it would make an excellent hunting bullet if you flat filed the very end of that pointy tip off a tad though.
