I'm a former skirmisher and hope to get back to shooting next year. In the mean time I have started having molds made for authentic Civil War era revolver bullets. So far I have molds for the Johnston & Dow Contract .44 conical and the Colt Cartridge Works .36 conical.
I'm considering a mold for original style Smith Carbine bullets, mainly because I'd like one for myself. But, I have to order at least 32 each time. (These are being made by LEE Precision, BTW).
Is there a market in the N-SSA for a period correct Smith bullet? I would have these made at .518 so they can be sized to your gun as most folks shoot at .515 or .516. But, they wont be too big to use unsized by the non-competition casual shooter. The weight would be 364 grains.
The price of my molds are $60 post paid. You can learn more about my other molds here: www.erasgonebullets.webstarts.com
You can see a drawing the bullet here: http://erasgonebullets.webstarts.com...0_caliber.html
Let me know if you are interested in a Smith mold. It will help me gauge interest before I make the investment.
Thanks!
