How are things going in Canada Tom?
Too bad about Spokane being canceled.  It does give me another year to practice my offhand!

Yeah bummer about Spokane I used to try to make a match a  year and finally my time is freed up and I was going to make a few more and this crap happens.
I really used to enjoy shooting with Bev and Jack Floyd. Phenomenal people

Well I been sick for the past couple of years with a blood disorder! So for me Spokane was going to happen live or die but the the Virus hit, an Docs said no travelling way before the boarders closed so I guess it decided for us! 
Always next year And I’m planning a new and improved piece of junk to shoot, still looking in Grandpas junk pile for something that resembles a barrel! 
Something a guy can get to drive tacks but haven’t figured it all out yet! 
Other then that I haven’t done a lot only put 30 miles on my truck in the last 14 months. Just can’t wait to get this heath problem done with.
Sylvia just shot a few rounds out of her 32 today, want to make sure she still remembered how to! 
Was fun see that at least.
Have fun.
Tom

Here's an idea to make some money: Have Accurate Molds clone it and then sell the PJ mold  Grin


In this case Tom at Accurate could clone it, but in many cases he can't always. Tom doesn't do any round nose or spitzer nose bullets. So if you want a mold copied that's not a flat nose, his copy will not be the same, and will have a flat nose.

His molds are excellent but that price is too high.  I gave my PJ Creedmoor mold away last year Smiley.  I have a couple of his other molds still though.

Just this last weekend I gave a (used) Paul Jones 40 cal BPCR mold to a fellow competitor to try before he buys. I want $150 for the used mold IF it works for him. 
I would feel bad if I made him pay to try/buy, and it not work out.

I guess either he or I could put it on the auction market and take what the bidders offer. Likely a lot more than $150. But, I rather see a friend and fellow rifleman get something of quality and value he can use.

$150.00 to me would be a fair price. I had two real hard to find Jone's moulds that were cut for the Groope Transonic Spitzer bullet that I passed onto a friend for a $100.00 each. That bullet was thee bullet to have at one point in time and both were for a 32. That bullet is being shown below..

Golly John, those rare molds would be worth a $1000 bucks a piece with the going market for PJ molds  Grin
I’m going to keep my PJ Money Bullet and Creedmoor for the kids when they probate my will

I have gotten rid of all of my own PJ moulds and if I had any still left 150.00 would now be a fair price.

I have a Paul Jones mold. Casts a tapered bullet. First time I used it shot a 250.
Wow, great mold great bullet! 


What happened? Did it quit shooting 250s?

Nothing happened. After shooting a couple 250s with it went to something else. 

Oh, I remember what it was, wouldn't shoot 250s in matches. Only when practicing.  Imagine that! Hate that mold.  Angry  Should sell it! 

Actually the twist in my rifle is a little slow for it. Have a new RKS 11.5 twist SS blank to use with it if I get the hankerin. Maybe I should sell the two together.  Huh
