Lee Hollow Base Rifle Mould - Single Cavity .459" 405 gr

The Lee Hollow Base Rifle Mould - Single Cavity .459" 405 gr is a precision-engineered tool designed for handloaders who demand consistency in their heavy-caliber casting operations. This mould is primarily utilized for the .45-70 Government and similar large-bore platforms, allowing shooters to produce high-mass projectiles that are essential for long-range accuracy.

Constructed from high-grade aluminum, this mould leverages the material's natural thermal conductivity to reach operating temperatures quickly and dissipate heat efficiently between pours. The single-cavity design ensures that every bullet produced is a near-exact clone of the last, minimizing weight variances often found in multi-cavity alternatives. The precision-machined hollow base plug creates a projectile that grips rifling securely, making it ideal for rifles with slightly worn or oversized bores.

Serious reloaders will appreciate the control gained by casting their own bullets, including alloy hardness and weight uniformity. This mould is perfect for those seeking the traditional 405-grain weight profile favored by marksmen for over a century. Its rust-resistant properties ensure a long service life, even in humid reloading environments.
