The RCBS Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Bullet Mould — Double Cavity .430" 240 gr — is a precision reloading tool engineered for handloaders who demand consistency and accuracy in ammunition production. Built from solid cast iron with dual cavities, this mould delivers repeatable castings critical to both target shooting and defensive ammunition development. RCBS has maintained a 60-year reputation for manufacturing reloading equipment that meets the exacting standards required by serious shooters and ammunition manufacturers.
The two-cavity design increases production efficiency without compromising accuracy. Each cavity is machined to specification from quality cast iron, ensuring uniform weight and dimensional consistency across each casting cycle. The mould features a 3/16-inch sprue plate fabricated from solid steel and secured with spring washers, providing stable positioning and reliable ejection of finished bullets. The .430-inch diameter and 240-grain weight profile is optimized for semi-wadcutter pistol loads, particularly in larger-bore revolver cartridges where controlled expansion and consistent ballistics matter.
This mould is designed for handloaders who cast their own bullets to exacting specifications — whether for competition shooting, custom load development, or precision practice ammunition. The semi-wadcutter design reduces fouling and simplifies sizing operations compared to fully swaged designs. Cast bullet handloading delivers cost-effective ammunition while maintaining full control over velocity, weight consistency, and performance characteristics. Experienced reloaders recognize RCBS equipment as a foundational investment in ammunition quality and batch-to-batch repeatability.
Cast bullet moulds from established manufacturers like RCBS have long been the standard for serious handloaders. The dual-cavity approach balances production speed with the precision that custom ammunition demands. Whether supporting a reloading operation or maintaining a personal ammunition supply, this mould represents proven equipment backed by decades of industry presence.
