Nice looking gun there, Ben! Hope you take it hunting and kill something big. Related question for anyone and everyone, as I am searching for a .500 BPE smooth patched bullet mould, for a 1889-1894 .577/.500 3-1/8" double that historically shot a 440 grain paper patched bullet. I have old grease groove moulds, Lyman 512138 and 515141, with two sizer-lubricator dies. After recently getting a .450 BPE double to shoot two-inch groups at 100 yards with patched bullets, I now believe they are the secret to success with a lot of BPE guns. So, if anyone can suggest a current paper patch mould or if you have one, I'd really appreciate knowing. Thanks! And if I get this gun to shoot right, it'll be going out West for bison, photos to follow.
