Who made these moulds with tapered handles.
This one is 9.3mm as marked 
I’ve seen them for sale from time to time.
Embarrassed
Now to attach the attachment 
Ohh dear guess not.

The one I have is marked "Hans Scheider."  Whether he's the maker or the owner I hav no idea.  It has no sprue cutter, just that odd "stalk" at the base.

I think I remember reading/hearing that these moulds were for European military rifles and were issued with each rifle.
  

I'm not a complete idiot, some of my parts are missing.

Yeah thanks.
It gives me something to go by.
I haven’t seen a button nose base bullet before.
Maybe there is some reason for it.

I have sized it down to 0.3582" and have tried it in a 357 magnum cadet rifle.
At 192 grns of soft lead it shoots quite well.
I tried 2207 and have a little bullseye left.
The bullseye load is awesome at 50 yrds. And the 2007 load is an 1". Not what you guys are used to but I may try a wad or cereal under it.
It may help the base and let me shoot at a bit higher speed.
Suppose it is a 9.3x33r or something now for the time being.

Roll EyesMaybe the button base is for when you load it in reverse like a boat tail wad cutter and it flys a low speed without any drag and buffets the wind incredibly.ohhhh Shocked
