When I first got this mold last year, It would not cast a bullet without flashing. No matter what I did, flashing all around except the bottom. I put it aside intending to contact NOE for a repair or replacement. Forgot all about it.
Last week, Beagle posted about the new brass NOE mold he got and I made a comment how I had troubles with the RG4 I have. Several posted that I should contact NOE to correct the problem. I did.
Even though I have had the mold for nearly a year, Al Nelson, Owner of NOE, said send it back and I will either repair it, replace it or would give me a refund.
I sent it back. It arrived at NOE on Monday. Al Nelson evaluated it, repaired it (some burrs around the holes for the pins removed and the pin brackets replaced) and called me telling me what he had found and what he did. I got a shipment notification email later on Monday. I received it on Thursday.
I did cast with it today and it is doing a satisfactory job. I think it will get better after I get some more casting done with it. I am still not impressed with the rg hollow point system though.
I will post pictures of the bullets later.
