I just PM'd Ben Hunchak and he is retiring and has no more of these in the pipeline. My Redhawk loves them and I need another supplier. Bullet Barn does not have the same mold. Anybody else?

I am totally uninterested in getting into casting, or I would be starting up immediately.

Mark: That bullet is Lyman's #429421 and was cast to BHN 10 which would be one step harder then Wheelweights, and sized to .430".....if you can't find what you want, let me know and i will whip you some up while the weather here is crappy....nothin' worse then a man without bullets!!.....Ben

Thanks, Ben. I don't want to postpone your retirement, but if you're bored already, I'll take 1000 pieces when you get to it.:D

I will see what comes back from OMA and go from there.

Our 44 swc are similiar but not exactly like Keiths slug.
A picture of our 44 can be seen on the magma engineering website, under bullet moulds.

I should add that we are in the process of moving off the island. And at the moment I'm not able to do any casting. The plan is to be back into full production no later than june. At the moment we can only sell what we have on the shelves which is going fast.
The shop will now be located and ran out of Prince George, but we will still have a supply of bullets avaible on the island in the future.
 
Hey Mark. Bullet barn offers some SWC. Not sure if they are keiths style?

And the pricelist:

Ive ordered some cast for my 30-30 with good results. Luckily I have a couple local sources but if I was ever in a pinch for .44 mag I'd give them a try. They are great to deal with Lois is on the ball with orders.

The bevel base is not there for you to enjoy, it is so that they will drop easily from the molds on casting machines. Casting machines require simple designs, with minimal lube grooves and no sharp edges or it really slows production. Most folks find accuracy loss from using bevel base bullets, esp. as velocity increases, ELMER WOULD NOT BE PLEASED!!!!!!!!
