LEE 2-cavity bullet mold designed specifically for .45 ACP, .45 Auto Rim, and .45 Colt (Long Colt) calibers, offering precision casting for metallic and semi-metallic reloading applications.
This mold produces .452 diameter, 200-grain round flat nose (RF) bullets optimized for the .45 ACP, .45 Auto Rim, and .45 Colt (Long Colt) cartridges, delivering consistent weight and shape for superior ballistic performance.
Featuring a ballistic coefficient of approximately .140, these bullets provide reliable external ballistics suitable for both target shooting and hunting scenarios where accuracy and terminal performance are critical.
LEEs 2-cavity molds are an excellent choice for handloaders and ballistic enthusiasts seeking a high-quality, cost-effective solution for bullet casting. The dual cavities allow for efficient production rates, reducing casting time without compromising bullet uniformity.
Constructed from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy blocks, these molds offer enhanced durability and longevity under rigorous reloading conditions. Aluminums superior thermal conductivity ensures rapid heating and cooling cycles compared to traditional iron molds, resulting in faster bullet solidification and improved casting efficiency.
Additionally, the lightweight aluminum design reduces operator fatigue during extended casting sessions, being approximately one-third lighter than iron or steel molds. This ergonomic advantage facilitates better control and precision when handling molten lead or semi-metallic alloys.
The two mold halves are securely clamped together using robust wooden-handled tongs, ensuring zero movement or misalignment during the casting process. This tight seal prevents lead leakage and guarantees consistent bullet dimensions with every pour.
Note that bullet weights may vary slightly depending on the specific lead or alloy composition used during casting, so handloaders should verify weights to maintain consistent ballistic performance.
The mold includes high-quality tongs with comfortable wooden grips for safe and efficient operation. Integrated into the mold design is a practical sprue cutter blade that functions as a lead pour spout, allowing easy separation of finished projectiles from the molten lead source.
For optimal mold maintenance and bullet quality, it is highly recommended to thoroughly degrease the mold prior to initial use. Additionally, seasoning the mold by smoking it or applying manufacturer-recommended mold release agents will enhance bullet release and prolong mold life.
Under no circumstances should the interior of the mold be lubricated with oils or greases, as this can cause defects in bullet surfaces and compromise casting safety.
Light lubrication of the sprue cutter screw is advised to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion, contributing to consistent sprue trimming and bullet quality.
