22 15 60 Bullet Mold and Dies Needed

I'm working on a restoration of a 22 15 60 Stevens-Pope barrel on a 44 Stevens.  The barrel is a later numbered one, so isn't one of Harry's barrels, but it is still a nice one.  I'm looking for a bullet mold that cast a .226 bullet as they used and am finding them hard to come by.  Anyone know of the whereabouts of one?  Also could use a reloading tool or dies if an extra set were had.   

Thanks,
Bruce

Many of the old Winchester moulds cast 0.226-0.228 diameter for the earlier 22 CF specs. The early moulds aren't easy to come by, so you just have to keep looking.

The 22-15-60 cartridge was also available with a 45 grain bullet as an optional loading.

This RCBS casts very nice oversize 22 bullets, when cast of softer alloy 20:1 they usually cast .001" or .002" smaller in diameter! Mike
