Lee Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Mould (Handles Sold Separately) - 6 Cavity .358" 140 gr

The Lee Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Mould with 6 Cavity design in .358" 140 grain is a precision casting tool engineered for serious handloaders and bullet casters running high-volume ammunition reloading operations. This aluminum mold block delivers consistent semi-wadcutter bullet production, a profile favored for target shooting and duty ammunition development where reliable feeding and ballistic performance matter.

Constructed from aluminum rather than steel, this Lee mold offers distinct operational advantages. Aluminum's lower mass reduces operator fatigue during extended casting sessions—a practical benefit when processing hundreds of rounds. The material heats and cools rapidly, accelerating cycle time and improving consistency between cavities. Aluminum resists rust and corrosion, a critical feature in humid reloading environments or coastal storage. The block halves are CNC-machined for precise cavity dimensions, ensuring uniform bullet weight and diameter across all six cavities. The .358" diameter and 140-grain weight specification suits .38 Special, .357 Magnum, and similar medium-bore pistol cartridges commonly loaded for practice and defensive applications.

This mold is designed for reloaders who cast their own bullets rather than purchase factory-cast or swaged projectiles. Six-cavity blocks balance productivity with manageable pouring technique—faster than single-cavity designs but easier to control than larger cavity counts. The semi-wadcutter profile minimizes leading in revolver barrels and provides a modest shoulder for controlled expansion potential. Handles are sold separately, allowing you to match the mold to your preferred casting handle system or upgrade existing equipment without waste.

Lee Precision molds are industry-standard equipment for handloaders prioritizing cost-effective, repeatable ammunition production. This casting tool is a core investment for anyone committed to long-term ammunition independence or specialized load development.
