Who makes a mold for a conical 16 bore? Not really interested in slug molds. Thanks

Try Jeff Tanner in the UK, he turns out some lovely RB molds.

Yes - that's right, Casper - RB only. NEI used to have a wide range and sometimes, inventory of bore size, bullet molds.
A friend of mine bought all of his 12 to 8 bore molds from NEI - years ago.

Do you have a particular style or shape of conical you wish to use? Do you have specific measurements and/or weight you'd like to have the mould built to? What about style of mould: a typically block mould for basic use, or do you prefer something worthy of using and including in a case like an original pattern bronze or steel mould?

Mike Rowe and I usually meet up once or twice a week to work on joint projects and drink a pint or two of IPA. During or last visit I found on his bench a gorgeous 16b Fosbery / Holland pattern mould and a cute little 20b "jungle ball" mould, along with all of his custom made cherries he makes to allow him to cut the moulds. Just let him know what your heart desires. Our website only displays a portion of his capabilities.

I've spoken to Mike and will go with a plain single cavity mold casting a 16b Holland pattern.
