advise needed
      #237790 - 14/11/13 11:01 AM

I have picked up a nice 12 bore rifle- Damascus re-proofed in jolly old for nitro. Right groove dia is .755, while left is .751. Now, this is twisted for conical, but have a ball mould on the way because it was affordable, in .755. I figure it will fit nicely due to the small bearing area. We will see. Now, I want to use this with conical. I have a source for a mould in the fosbery style, at .740 and 750 gr. Cherry already exists. My idea is to get one of those, and open up the driving bands to- uh- what? .753 or so? Also, the rear band would be easy, the front not so easy. Would I get by just opening the rear band??

So advise needed- what dia to open to, and will both bands be necessary? Guess I can experiment slowly, but educated guesses would be appreciated!

Thanks, Doug

Have you checked in with Tom at Accurate molds? He's my "go to guy" for molds and he's got some good ideas about what will work.
