My only advice is to make.sure you get a mold at least 2 thousands over your sluged.bore diameter. Example noe mold .512 diameter and than I size to .510 for my Texan. If the mold cast small accuracy suffers. NOE has sizing dies with bushings to change diameter. Go larger size down. Ordered one mold at .510 diameter for my .510 and its loose throws closer to .509. Arsenal molds can make use exact diameter mold..pretty cheap too.

Accurate molds can also do wider diameter from catalog . No extra price charged. But no HP molds from Tom

Agreed. I have only 1 .50 cal and it shoots
.495 round ball and minie type bullets. So not really in a rush to get it right now. I’m waiting for a .452/454 mold to hit production as I have 3 .45 caliber rifles.

I love my NOE mold and Accurate Mold but for $88.00 I like my Arsenal mold just as much. I'm not worried about hollow points for my purpose. NOE cheapest option for hollow points when they are in stock. I wanna get the NOE sizing bushing system in my the future. For more slug size control.

Not sure is Arsenal and Accurate are one and the same? I do have one of Tom’s molds in .30 cal and like it very much.

No, I bet those are two different companies. I think Accurate molds is an older company. Accurate is located in Utah. Same as NOE
But can't remember where Arsenal located. Last time when I ordered a mold from Arsenal was 2016. Both are good mold makers
