I want to rid myself of this mold.
I am tired of looking at it on the "To Do" shelf.
For multiple personal reasons, I don't want to expend any more energy on this mold.
While it does cast some relatively good bullets for close range pistol shooting, as is, it should be corrected so it makes more perfecto bullets.

The short version is, after my attempt to Leement it, the mold now drops bullets that are larger than desired, that vary in size.
Three cavities drop at .359 (129.5gr), and the other three cavities drop .360 (130.3gr).
There is no visual damage that can be seen by naked eye, in fact it looks almost new.

newish Lee 356 125 2R has become troublesome
A couple months ago, after the big suppliers started getting Lee molds in stock, I bought this new 6 cav 356 125 2r. I had been casting lots of NOE 128gr SWC for 9mm (my friends have hungry guns). One of them asked for some RN bullets. I've never had a RN mold for 9, so I figured, what the...
