RCBS 44-300-SWC Cramer style hollow point conversion.

RCBS 44-300-SWC with gas check removed and rear drive band enlarged by .001". Background mold is the same model with GC removed and band enlarged but in non-hp form.

Lyman 454190.

Ideal 308252 Cramer-style conversion with monstrous hollow point cavity for use in high powered air rifles. Drops bullets at 68 grains.

Another oversized HP mold for high powered air rifle use.

A nice pair of faceted pin Cramer conversions on Lyman molds.

Lyman molds with 4 sided faceted pins to promote "petals" during expansion.

Lyman full wad-cutter converted to hollow point for plinking and an RCBS for the 45 ACP, RCBS included pin in cup and flat point as well.

Lyman molds with Cramer conversions for the 9mm and 40 S&W.

Cup point pin in a Cramer conversion. Good pin design for hunting with a softer alloy.

Flat point enlarged slightly to allow cramer-style conversion. Extra set of flat point pins included.

Spitzer style nose modified to large hollow point for high powered air rifle use.

Pair of cramer conversions including extra pins to allow casting with large traditional hollow point or cup point cavities.

Nice pair of cramered .44 molds.

Cramer conversion with a hard hitting cup point pin set.

Larger HP in a 41 bullet.

The 452374 RN converts to a near perfect HP profile. Mold supplied with a large standard style HP pin set and a cup point pin set and matching top punches.

One Cramer cavity makes a double cavity mold a very versatile casting tool. This bullet is destined for west Texas feral hogs.

Super fast HP casting with an older NEI 4 cavity mold.

Saeco four cavity molds can only have two cavities hollow pointed due to the placement of the block alignment pins.

RCBS mold radically altered to a .250 meplat with a cup point nose for deer in the garden low velocity use. If this won't anchor them, nothing will!

Another .250 Meplat cup point bullet for low speed soft alloy use.

Cramer style RCBS shown with top punch matched to HP pins.

This is my favorite 45 pistol bullet when hollow pointed. The Lyman 4 cavity molds are very nice for high production casting of hollow points.

This aluminum NEI just barely had the clearance for the HP cross pins at the handle mount screws. DC NEI molds have off center handle mount screw holes which can be in the way of adding the Cramer conversion to one of the cavities.

Five of the six cavities can be done on most NEI six cavity molds.

All six cavities could be done on this NEI mold only due to the bullet being so short allowing a cross pin to be placed near the bullet nose. Cross pins on that cavity also had to have a very slight angle to clear the handle mount screw adjacent to the cavity. Most six cavity NEI molds can have only have five cavities altered to the Cramer style conversion.

Four cavity Cramer style conversion allows LOTS of HP bullets to be cast in a hurry! (.205 pins)

Cramer conversion on a small caliber mold, note the oversize HP pin base section allowing a secure mount for the sliding alignment pins. These smaller caliber molds can be altered to the Cramer system with this stepped HP pin system, there is an extra fee due to the increased machining.

Another small caliber mold with a Cramer conversion featuring an oversize HP pin base for secure mounting of the sliding alignment pins. The smaller cavity molds can be altered to the Cramer system with the stepped HP pin, there is an extra fee due to the significant increase in machining time.

Lyman mold with Meplat enlarged to .250" for increased expansion for lower velocity use.

Cramer conversion with super huge HP designed for low to mid speed revolver use only.

NEI mold that was reworked from a previous single cavity HP to the Cramer system for a four cavity HP mold. Large cup point is excellent for low speeds with very alloy.

Four cavity NEI mold reworked from an earlier single cavity HP conversion to my version of Cramer multi-cavity system

Nice Cramer-style conversion with multiple pin sets and top punches.

Lyman four cavity 429215 with a full Cramer HP conversion.

Nice hard hitting big HP in a Cramer-style conversion with matching top punch.

Huge HP in a Cramer-style conversion. For Air rifle use.

Big HP (about 35 grains).

Increased meplat and large HP make this a fast-casting hard-hitter for your auto!

RCBS mold with meplat increased to .250" for increased expansion in high powered air rifles. This is as big as you can go in a Cramer type conversion and still release the bullets from the pins.

Big HP for moderate speed low ricochet plinker use use in rifles

Single cavity modified with Cramer type sliding alignment pins into an adjustable nose length mold casting between 245 and 295 grains.

Giant HP in a Lyman 429215 for lower speed 44 special use.

Lyman 452374 modified to a large HP. Extra faceted tip pin fitted for mold shown also. This big HP is about optimal for 45 ACP speeds with a fairly soft alloy.

The Lyman 454616 has as big a HP pin as can fit without removing part of the deep lube grooves (this too can be done). Bullets from this mold are destined for high powered air rifle hunting use.

RCBS 38-140-WC (with someones drilled out nose) further altered to a Cramer type HP. The bullets from this mold are still on the heavy side even with the big HP.
