Very Cool indeed, buckstix. I am surprised there is the paradox mould with the rifle, instead of a round ball mould, but then the word ball could as easily mean the paradox styled "ball".



Hello Daryl_S,
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, the English referred to any bullet as "Ball". Apparently a 1-5/8 oz to 1-3/4 oz bullet is the proper weight for T.Bland Paradox guns. That's 710g to about 765g - the range for a paradox Conical bullet. Suggested mix is 15:1 (15 parts lead to 1 part tin) Velocity should be in the 1,000 fps to 1,100 fps range. I'm casting pure lead in this mold which casts 790g with the round nose and 730g with the hollow point. My first load will be with 730g hollow point. I intend to load a low pressure charge of Unique to start with.
