Mould alignment pins?

Hi, I know a few of you play around with making molds. I have before but always in ways that avoided sourcing alignment pins.

Anybody have a source for the ball-nose alignment pins common in bullet moulds? I'm probably just having a blank mind moment, but I can find round, diamond, and bullet alignment pins all day long, but not what I'm looking for.

I simply ground a tool blank to the form of the radiused nose and make my own alignment pins. MSC also sells one end tapered and one end round dowel pins and probably what you are looking for. Scroll down to locate what you need using the below link.
