WANTED .350 round balls

[Rudall]

In the UK I cannot find a source for Hornady or Speer .350 balls. Maybe it’s a Covid-related supply problem. Does anyone know where I might find any? Or cast me some? Or even a slightly larger size?
Many thanks.

Track of the Wolf has already cast balls, but beings you are in the UK, the best bet would be to buy their Lee .350 mold for around $23 (They also have Lyman for more money) and have it shipped to the UK. That is an option. As shipping is more, the mould would allow you to melt away.

 

[Rudall]

I don’t really shoot enough to warrant setting up with moulds, melting pots, etc and want to avoid that if possible.

I can cast you all of the .350 rounds balls you would like; but I have no idea what it would take to get them to you!!!! If you can figure out the logistics (and cost) I can help.

That’s a very kind offer. I’m hoping one of our UK members will chime in. It’s quite late here, but I’m a night owl.

What about boxes of .35 diameter size 000 buckshot?
Is such available in the UK?

 

[Rudall]

I believe that 000 (LG) here is .36, so that would be too large.

 

[SDSmlf]

Not sure if 00-1/2 buck (.340” diameter) would work, nor do I know the cost to ship to the UK, but something to consider.

There is a mold builder in the uk that will make any size you want.Have used him a number of times.Cant think of his name right now

[Rudall]

That’s what I’m hoping for.

Jeff Tanner molds.

The mould in post #10 is jeff tanner moulds. That is the business name. They are in UK

 

[Rudall]

Thank you. I’m still hoping to find someone to cast for me.

 

[SmokepoleSam]

You are welcome.

 

[SDSmlf]

I have had a few Tanner molds that were first class, though they were made before Jeff Tanner passed away a couple of years ago. I do not know if his passing has had a negative impact on the business.

Thank you. I’m still hoping to find someone to cast for me.

Rudall, I cast regularly, however I don’t have the size mould that you need. I travel to Bisley regularly, if you get a mould to me I’ll happily cast you some balls and take them to Surrey when I visit for the price of the lead and a pint of Guinness in the L&M

He has moulds here. PM me if this offer suits. No strings.

Rudyard
Just saw your post ,I shoot a .36 flintlock and cast my own ,i would be happy to cast you some if you send me your details.(fellow Britt from Bristol).
Regards.

I have offered to cast some balls for Rudall but I don’t have the mould. I have said that if he he gets the mould, I will cast for cost (and a beer) , and deliver when I’m in Surrey or post at cost, and the mould would remain his. Just saw Hogslayers message. Rudall, you have a choice.
