i have been temped lately to make a nice case for my new 1858 Remington, and i am looking at the replica bullet molds they sell. i am a little curious about the bullets they cast. what is the profile of the bullet like for the Remington style bullet molds? i haven't been able to find any pictures of the cavity on those bullet molds, so any information would be appreciated! also, how do the reproduction bullet molds cast? i am curious about that. i am intending to put it in my pistol box as sort of a display item and cast some bullets with it, you see I'm planning this really neat pistol display case I'm going to make and line it with velvet maybe, it will be sweet! so it's not going to see any serous amount of ammo production. if i want lots of ammo i just use my Lee double cavity bullet molds, those things will throw two hot and shiny bullets (or balls) in 5-7 seconds once i really get going and pick up the pace. great mold, they pay for themselves in ammo, and you can just recycle your used ammo you recover.
i am also thinking about getting an old fashioned bag mold for my rifle, i feel kinda dirty showing my younger cousin how the settlers made bullets with a modern mold. they have some pretty cool ones at Track of the Wolf: http://www.trackofthewolf.com/categories/partList.aspx?catID=18&subId=126&styleId=408&as=1
Stay safe and God bless America
