Don't know if you have looked or not but there are some very good deals on certain molds. From $15.22 for a 2 cav. To $24.36 for a 6 cav. Not bad as the 2 cav is now $30 and $50 for a 6 cav for their regular prices.

I got a 358-105 swc to try in my 380. $35 to my door.

Mold showed up today. Took it apart and knocked off a couple burs on the sprue plate. Then cast up about 300 bullets for the 380acp. I took a couple of the bullets and loaded a couple dummy rounds. This thing cycles perfect in the Ruger LCP. Seat it to the crimp groove and it chamber without any resistance. Oh, I sized them to 0.356" before this.

So now they are cooling down and getting ready to coat them later. They were coming out at 103.4-104grs with the lead in the pot I am using right now.

I think I paid $26 for a 6C TL358148WC a few weeks ago from that sale. Cleaned up well, cast up over 800 of them. so I figure it's already paid for itself. They even came out .359"! This works nicely because i had hoped to be able to cast, tumble-lube and shoot and it work out just exactly that way.

Tomme that 105g mold casts beautifully!!! Its one of the best casting LEE molds I have owned!

I made a dummy and it bulges tge sides if the case a bit as deep as it seats. But it chambered fine in the glock. Need to try in the Ruger.

Fits my Ruger sized to 0.356". Did not try any larger. The other bullet I was using was 0.356" also so it should be fine. Going to try to make it out in the next few days to try it out as well as a BUNCH of 223 loads for 3 guns

I have purchased 4 of Lee 6 cavity molds from Midway in the last month. I paid $24.75 for each and got free shipping. I am using the 2 newest ones today.

That sale was quite a boon. I'm thankful someone else mentioned it, because I've not been much of a Midway fan for many years and seldom go to their site. Once in a great while, they have something I want and the price it right. THIS was one of those instances and I snagged a mould that I always felt guilty about not having, but also never thought I'd use.

I use the heck out of it already!
