Mold 429-200-RF for Precision Reloading and Hunting Ammunition

90285

LEE 2-cavity bullet mold designed specifically for .44 Special, .44 Remington Magnum, and .44-40 calibers, offering precision casting for metallic and semimetallic projectiles used in advanced handloading and ballistic applications.

Featuring a .429 inch diameter with a 195-grain round flat nose (RF) profile, this mold is engineered to produce consistent, high-quality bullets optimized for these popular revolver and rifle cartridges.

With a ballistic coefficient of .124, these projectiles provide reliable external ballistics performance, suitable for both target shooting and hunting scenarios requiring controlled expansion and penetration.

LEE’s 2-cavity molds represent an excellent balance between cost-efficiency and precision craftsmanship, making them a preferred choice among reloaders who demand durable and repeatable bullet casting solutions.

Constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum blocks, these molds offer superior thermal conductivity compared to traditional iron or steel molds. This results in faster heat transfer during the casting process, enhancing cycle times and bullet consistency.

The lightweight aluminum construction reduces operator fatigue during extended casting sessions, as the mold weighs approximately one-third less than comparable iron or steel molds, improving handling and control.

Each mold’s two halves are securely clamped with wooden-handled tongs to eliminate any movement or misalignment during the molten lead pouring phase, ensuring precise bullet dimensions and uniformity.

Note that final bullet weights may vary slightly depending on the specific lead alloy or semimetallic composition used, allowing reloaders to tailor their loads for optimal performance.

The mold package includes high-quality tongs with ergonomic wooden grips for safe and comfortable handling of hot molds during casting operations.

Equipped with an integrated sprue cutter, the mold allows for clean and efficient removal of excess lead from the bullet base, facilitating smooth release of finished projectiles and minimizing post-casting cleanup.

For optimal mold longevity and bullet quality, it is highly recommended to thoroughly degrease the mold before initial use and to season the cavity surfaces by smoking or applying specialized mold release agents designed for bullet molds.

Under no circumstances should the interior of the mold be lubricated with grease or oils, as this can adversely affect bullet surface finish and mold integrity.

Light lubrication of the sprue cutter screw is advised to maintain smooth operation and prevent corrosion, ensuring consistent sprue trimming throughout the mold’s service life.
