Question Finally found the 45-70 mold/bullet!

I have been looking for a long time now for a specific setup for reloads on my 45-70. I have a good mold that casts 405gr +/- flatpoint solid base bullets. And for the time being it works well. Hell it works VERY well. But I have noticed my rifle LIKES round nose bullets better than flat points or spire point (hornady leverevolution) bullets. While I was at it I have been fascinated for a VERY long time with hollow base bullets because I am shooting Trailboss powder and will someday be shooting black or black sub, and I would like to get the bump up for accuracy.

ANYWAY The first link is the bullet sold as the bullet by a company called Buffalo Arms (never even heard of them until tonight)

The second link is the mold that makes said bullet (I am more interested in the mold than buying precast bullets)

The problem is #1 cost of the mold. $179 for a bullet mold seems out there to me. #2 Never heard of this company until tonight. #3 I am still out of work. So see #1.

Does anybody know of a comparable mold, throwing at around 405 grains? Does anybody know anything about this company?

Thanks

Richard
