RCBS Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Bullet Mould - Double Cavity .400" 200gr

The RCBS Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Bullet Mould – Double Cavity .400" 200gr (Model 82068) is a precision casting tool engineered for reloaders who demand consistent, repeatable results in handgun ammunition production. Built from solid cast iron with dual cavities, this mould produces uniform 200-grain semi-wadcutter bullets suitable for a range of pistol calibers in the .400" bore diameter. RCBS has maintained its reputation for precision reloading equipment over six decades, and this casting mould reflects that heritage through exacting machining tolerances and proven design.

The double-cavity configuration allows operators to cast two bullets per cycle, improving throughput during large batch loading sessions. The 3/16-inch sprue plate is machined from solid steel and secured with spring washers to ensure consistent alignment and minimal sprue waste with each casting. Proper alignment reduces lead flash and variation between cavities, which translates directly to more uniform bullet weight and diameter across a production run. The substantial cast-iron construction absorbs and distributes heat evenly, critical for maintaining consistent melt temperature and metal flow into the cavities during high-volume casting operations.

This mould is purpose-built for handloaders working with .400" caliber pistol rounds and serves competitive shooters, range enthusiasts, and those seeking cost-effective ammunition production. Semi-wadcutter projectiles offer reliable feeding in most pistol actions and provide a wider bearing surface for consistent velocities. The 200-grain weight is commonly used in larger-bore pistol cartridges where velocity is moderate and bullet mass provides stable ballistics. Reloaders who cast their own bullets gain full control over weight sorting, material composition, and production cost—critical advantages for high-round-count training or match prep.
