Seeking Lyman 457102 mould (gas checked 425 grainer)

I'm seeking a gas checked Lyman bullet mould for a 45-70, ~425 grain. It is Lyman number 457102 or 458102(?).

If you have one, and were thinking of giving it a new home, please drop me a PM.

Yes, I know RCBS makes a 458-400 gas check mould. I will likely go that route if I can't find the Lyman. If anyone has the RCBS 458-400 grain gascheck mould, I'd be interested too.

VG+ or better condition.

Thanks.

I've often thought that mould looked very interesting.

Right now there's a group buy in the offering for a 420 grain plain base over on Cast Boolits that you may want to check out, here: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?t=15069

Ranch Dog has a 425 grain gas check .45-70 bullet remarkably like the Lyman, only with microbands for tumble lubing: http://www.ranchdogmolds.com/TLC460425RF

A heads up.
My 457102 weighs in at 445 grains using WW and a bit of tin. Very accurate, lovely bullet.
