I've got molds by RCBS, Lyman, even a couple opf vintage SAECO molds, but nothing I've found casts faster and easier, and with fewer rejects, than Lee's six cavity molds. Damn, I like them.

Charley,

I have to agree with you on the 6 cavity molds. I have used them for a while and they do cast much faster.

The best usage I have found for them are for my handgun bullets that I shoot a lot of. I can cast 2 to 3 times faster with the Lee molds.

Enjoy,

Jerry

I cast 25 pounds of Lee 180 grain 30 cal bullets on the 21st of June with a Lee single cavity mold. That was like running a marathon.

I was really wishing for a 6 cavity.
