The Lee Double Cavity Mold - .429-240-swc No-gc W/handles is a precision bullet casting tool designed for reloaders and handloaders who demand consistency and efficiency in ammunition production. This double cavity configuration allows shooters to cast two projectiles simultaneously, significantly reducing the time required to produce large batches of cast bullets. Built for cartridges including the .44 Special, .44-40 Winchester, and other .429-diameter calibers, this mold serves competitive shooters, hunters, and defensive firearm users who prioritize cost-effective ammunition manufacturing without sacrificing accuracy.
This mold casts .429-diameter projectiles weighing 240 grains in a round nose configuration, a ballistic profile proven effective for pistol hunting and target shooting applications. The round nose design provides reliable feeding in lever-action rifles and revolvers while minimizing leading in barrel bores—critical for shooters who reload repeatedly with the same firearm. Cast from high-quality steel, the mold features integrated handles for safe, ergonomic pouring of molten lead, reducing hand strain during extended casting sessions. The no-gas-check (no-gc) designation means these bullets cast without a brass cup inserted at the base, keeping production costs lower while maintaining integrity for moderate-velocity handgun loads.
Reloaders transitioning from purchased ammunition to cast projectiles benefit most from this two-cavity design, especially those running high-volume shooting schedules or preparing ammunition for hunting seasons. The mold is compatible with standard lead casting kits and melting furnaces, integrating seamlessly into any established reloading bench. Proper sizing and lubrication of cast bullets through a .429-diameter sizing die ensures reliable chambering and consistent velocity in .44 Special and .44-40 Winchester rifles and revolvers. This mold represents the foundation of economical, self-sufficient ammunition production for serious handloaders.
