Received a custom mould from them about 2 weeks back and took a few laps with it today. Can hardly describe what a great mould it is. The bullets cast today were sufficiently concentric that I cannot measure any run out on base, shank or bore rider nose. The mould seam is right on the edge of invisible. Bullet weights consistent within .1 grain for 15 successive samples, casting at 183.5 gr.
When ordered I was looking for a major diameter of .309. Steve told me he was good with that +/- .001". They cast at .310" w/30:1 alloy. I can fudge that a little by juggling the mix, or just shoot them as cast.
Cut off the sprue, turn it over and it fall off. Open the mould and the bullet falls out. I do not have another mould that is so...boring. Based on a sample of 1 I highly recommend their moulds.
