    Lead ball mould wanted: .40 to .50

    I am after a lead mould to cast musket balls that I want to use in my slingshot, so the calibre is not that important. I currently use .44 balls, which work well and so I am after a 2nd hand mould between .40 and .50 calibre. Bit of a strange request but if anyone has a spare one I would be interested, preferably a pair with handles on them. Thanks

    Smile RCBS mould

    I have an RCBS ball mould I no longer require but it was expensive as it is a cast iron mould and not alliminium. I would want £45 complete with handles which have to be purchased at extra cost. I can throw in aprox a couple of dozen stainless steel balls I have for the same price posted: Regards Tony

    Easy there... Some of us have other things to do instead of sitting in front of a PC screen with a glass of booze trying to start an argument.... I did not subscribe to the thread with email so missed the updates until now. I did check it for the first few days but then got distracted by Life... Apologies if I offened

    Thanks for both offers. £45 is a bit to steep I am afraid, as I am after an old cheap pair, so I will have to pass on your kind offer gallileo110. I have found some interesting molds on US eB*y under sporting goods, hunting, reloading, then molds. A 4 to 6 cavity Lee one would be nice. If anyone has any more items I am still interested in something round the £20 mark
