A fellow bullet caster I've traded with quite a bit sent this Mold to me. Accurate 452-230 MZ It makes a pile of bullets quick. Thanks for looking. Boats

I have a few nlg bullet molds. The mp 357-125 no lube groove is my favorite. It makes a nice 9mm hollow point that comes out at approx 135gns in my alloy. Some don’t work as good. I have a mp 314- sledgehammer that I can’t do much with. It seems the long bearing surface, without a lube groove raises pressure a lot. I never could get much velocity without showing pressure signs. I like them better in semi auto rounds. Yours look good, especially for 45acp.

I have one in a 140 gr 9mm & you can cast them almost as fast as you can shoot them, it's a great bullet mold.

I can see where a NLG would be great in the pistol cartridges, but I'll stay with traditional grooves in all of the revolver bullets even though I PC everything. Wheelguns' experience with that little Sledgehammer bullet. The 327 Federal thwt I suspect he was using it in is a good example of why (that little cartridge will show pressure quick with minor changes).
Regardless, I can see where a multiple cavity NLG mold in a diameter for 9mm or 45 ACP would be a good thing to have.
