Where to find mold for belted or winged bullet
I have recently acquired a great old Cape Gun or Cape Rifle. It is 12 bore by .50 caliber. The .50 caliber is two grooved rifling with a 31" twist.
I have a belted round ball mold on order from Jeff Tanner in Great Britain. However, I'm thinking the 31" twist was designed for a conical winged bullet about 1" long (from Greenhill's formula)

Any suggestions on where to get a mold custom made?
