Default Moose Molds

I discovered a new mold manufacturer in Dublin PA a few weeks ago . They’re called “Moose Moulds” and there primary reason for existence is to supply NSS-A shooters with ML molds . Anyway they make a mold they call a “Wadcutter Minnie” for 58 and 69 cal MUskets . So after measuring my 10 and 12 gauge slugs that fit inside shot cups I ordered a .715-535 for the 10 gauge and a .685-535 for the 12 gauge . The 535 grains is pure lead with a hollow base , ill use a 50/50 alloy of WW’s and pure . I also had them make me an extra pin for each mold so I can cast them as solid base as well , I would “assume” that will add 50-75 grains . I’ll see when I cast both versions Monday or Tuesday .
