Black powder bullet moulds.

[trooper]

I recently got back into Black powder shooting as I sold all my gear from years back. I've been trying to locate round ball and R.E.A.L. bullet moulds.
It looks like every store is out of stock. You would think that moulds for black powder would be easily acquired. Does anyone know where a fellow can find a couple of bullet moulds for a 50 cal Hawken?

Have you tried Western metals out of Calgary? I believe Higginsons is a lee dealer also. CGN probably has them listed in the EE..

I would look at ordering them from Track of the Wolf. Even with the exchange they are cheaper, and they usually have what you want readily available.

I've been all over the internet! western metals, CGN, Track of the wolf, Optics planet, P and D, Cabela's.. the list is endless. All out of stock! It's almost like Lee and RCBS quit making bullet moulds for muzzle loaders. What's happening out there? Surely someone is still producing bullet moulds. I'm going to put out a request on equipment exchange here and on CGN and see what happens.

I attempted to purchase online but they sell instore purchase only.. I'll keep looking.

Perhaps your local Cabelas will bring one in from another store. I believe they offer between store free shipping.

Could just get one made. Few custom mold makers in Canada the US, and definitely Europe.

10 years ago, I could go into any sporting goods store and select what I wanted
Wholesale sports in Edmonton used to carry a decent supply of BP accessories. I decided to check amazon.com. They seem to have a much better selection of stuff south of the border and that brings up another question, who decides what we can and can not buy off amazon? Sorry if my frustration is showing. I'll keep looking

Thanks Jungleboy, I'll call Cabelas Edmonton north in the morning and see what they can do for me.

Rusty Wood Trading and Wolverine have a number of bullet moulds listed for sale. Don't know if they have the exact one you want but worth a look and a call. Ebay also has a whole raft of molds listed.

A big shout out to Ice hunter for pointing me in the right direction! I was able to score a few moulds for myself and my wife's 50 cal. Thank you to Dean2, Mrcrossbow and Jungleboy for the assistance. Very much appreciated!
