I do not have a 7mm mould yet but

I've been wanting to try the 6mm bore casting. It has a bit of a reputation for being a bit difficult, perhaps that is more due to the .243 cartridge than the actual caliber. I've not worked with .243 much myself other than some shooting with a very limited number of different loads. My 6mm Ackley rifle seems a peach to work with.

In handguns my focus is the .240 Raptor and .240 Banshee (to a lesser extent, due to easily available moulds). I have a RCBS 6mm FN mould that is either 95 or 105 grs. that I like the looks. I lack only the gas checks (not that easy to find) and time.

In both 6 and 7mm calibers there are some funky looking cast moulds with tons of lube grooves up the sides. I never liked those but they may shoot good. All of them are either RN or semi-pointy, which I do not favor.
