LEE TL 2-Cavity Mold for .45 ACP Caliber

 

.452 Diameter, 230 Grain True Cast (TC) Bullets Specifically Designed for .45 ACP Ammunition

 

This precision-engineered bullet mold features micro-grooves that enhance bullet lubrication, reducing barrel leading and improving overall ballistic performance during shooting and reloading processes.

 

Ballistic Coefficient: 0.146, optimized for reliable trajectory and energy retention in handgun applications.

 

LEE’s 2-cavity molds represent an excellent choice for metallic and semi-metallic reloaders seeking high-quality bullet molds at a competitive price point, ensuring consistent bullet casting for handloading enthusiasts.

 

Constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum blocks, these molds offer superior durability and longevity compared to traditional iron or steel molds, making them ideal for repeated casting cycles in reloading workshops.

 

Aluminum molds exhibit faster thermal response, cooling and heating more rapidly than iron molds, which contributes to increased casting efficiency and reduced cycle times during bullet production.

 

Additionally, aluminum blocks weigh approximately one-third less than iron or steel molds, significantly reducing operator fatigue during extended casting sessions and improving handling ergonomics.

 

The two mold halves are securely clamped together with wooden-handled tongs, ensuring zero movement during the casting process to produce uniform, dimensionally accurate projectiles ready for reloading.

 

Bullet weights may vary slightly depending on the specific lead alloy composition used, allowing reloaders to fine-tune their loads for optimal ballistic performance.

 

Included with the mold are wooden-handled tongs designed for safe and comfortable mold handling during high-temperature casting operations.

 

The mold is equipped with a practical sprue cutter blade that serves as the lead pour spout, facilitating clean separation of finished bullets from the mold with minimal post-casting cleanup.

 

For best results, thoroughly degrease the mold prior to initial use and consider seasoning it by smoking or applying manufacturer-recommended mold treatments to enhance bullet release and prolong mold life.

 

Never lubricate the interior cavity of the mold, as this can negatively impact bullet surface quality and dimensional consistency.

 

Lightly lubricate the sprue cutter retaining screw to maintain smooth operation and prevent corrosion during routine maintenance.
