.395 Caliber Bullet Mold
LEE Two-Cavity Bullet Mold for .395 Caliber Projectiles
This precision-engineered bullet mold is specifically designed for casting spherical bullets suitable for .395 caliber firearms, ideal for both traditional muzzleloading rifles and modern hunting cartridge reloading applications.
Manufactured to support high-volume production of lead and semi-metallic projectiles, this mold ensures consistent bullet dimensions and superior ballistic performance.
The mold features a robust aluminum block construction reinforced with hardened steel bushings and precision alignment pins, providing exceptional durability and corrosion resistance under rigorous casting conditions.
Aluminum molds offer significantly faster thermal response compared to traditional iron molds, allowing for rapid heating and cooling cycles. This efficiency reduces downtime between castings and helps maintain optimal molten lead temperature for superior bullet quality.
Additionally, the lightweight designapproximately one-third lighter than iron counterpartsminimizes operator fatigue during extended casting sessions, enhancing overall productivity and comfort.
The two aluminum halves are securely clamped with included locking tongs, preventing any unwanted movement or misalignment during the molten lead pouring process, thereby ensuring uniform bullet formation.
Equipped with an anodized, extra-hard sprue plate and cutter, this mold delivers clean, precise cuts on the bullet sprue, eliminating excess lead and producing perfectly finished projectiles ready for sizing and lubing.
Note that actual bullet weights may vary depending on the specific lead alloy or semi-metallic composition used during casting.
Included with the mold are high-quality locking tongs designed for safe and efficient opening and closing of the mold halves.
For optimal mold longevity and casting performance, it is highly recommended to thoroughly degrease the mold prior to initial use. Additionally, seasoning the mold with smoke or applying manufacturer-recommended mold release agents will enhance bullet release and reduce surface imperfections.
Never lubricate the interior cavity of the mold, as this can adversely affect bullet surface finish and mold integrity.
Lightly lubricate the sprue plate retention screw to ensure smooth operation and prevent seizing during repeated casting cycles.
