Peter ,the mould came with the H&H Paradox that my hunting mate owns.
Manufactured for or by H&H to match the gun.

Alan- just got a new computer with a GOOD screen. Those tang handled moulds are rather difficult to hold onto, aren't they. Nice loading tools. Most of the higher grade guns came with one or more moulds made specifically for them. Unfortunately, many tools went missing over the years along with the cases. A Buddy of mine has a number of doubles with accoutrements. They sure are fun to play with.

Daryl,they sure are hard to hold onto especially after you have cast 20-30 projectiles.
Even leather gloves don't keep the heat out.

I think I'd make up some wooden handles that slid on. Two-piece would work easiest, inletting each tapered handle into each 1/2 handle. Then, lay in the re-silicone high temp goop, and also use it to glue the two 1/2's together onto the mopulds spikes. If you use high-temp silicone to hold them. they'll last like that for years, but will be removeable without damage if desired or if needed replacement.
; With handles, you can heat the mould properly to get nice smooth casts that will be as perfect as the mould will produce and I suspect it will produce perfect bullets.

So, how many grains of what modern powder is equivalent to 30 grains of revolver cordite?

Alan,


What is the diameter of the bullets after you pass them through the "Regulator"?
