    North American Arms .22 Bullet Mould?

    Anyone know where you can obtain a .22 bullet mould that replicates the 30 grain bullet that North American Arms supply for their Companion BP pistols?

    Thanks Dougie

    If you can't get them in the UK, you might want to try North American Arms directly.

    These guns are shipped from the factory with the bullets that are ordinarily loaded in .22 short cartridges. Acquiring a mold ay prove difficult and would have to be a custom mold I reckon.

    However, there are probably a couple of options. See if you can get an ammo company to sell you just the bullets or have you thought about "round ball"? #4 buckshot is .24 calibre and may go quite nicely....

    Failing either of he above, the bullets are availibe from NAA direct.

    You might find a .22 LEM Spitzer mould if you ask in the Collectable Airguns section. This was a mould for casting solid bullet shaped airgun pellets circa 1970's-1980's. I've read of people using them for loading .22 Hornet cartridges so they might be ok for a BP revolver.

    Alternatively, send an email to NAA and ask if they have an agent in UK (or Europe) where you can buy the bullets from. Sales contact from their website is kenny@naaminis.com

    Good ideas.

    You might also ask on the Muzzleloaders Association of Great Britain (MLAGB) Forum.
