    8mm mold options

    Has anyone happened to have used this one ? Got a lil Mauser slugging at .321 think this would be a decent multi purpose one. Has the nose profile I like vs a stupid big meplat

    I have a total 3 LEE 8mm molds. Had one and bought two more to run in unison to double production.
    The nose looks short, but mine touches the rifling with no trouble. Military ball had a long pointed bullet. All but close to the base wasn't close to rifling. Bearing surface was short.
    LEE has a longer bearing surface and I'm pleased with it in my rifle.

    The only 8mm mold that I have is the Saeco #081. It works fine.
    Show us Der Mauser....
