The Lee Double Cavity Mold - .495 Ball W/handles is a precision bullet-casting tool designed for reloaders and ammunition manufacturers who demand consistent, repeatable results. Built for serious shooters in tactical, law enforcement, and historical firearms applications, this mold produces uniform lead balls at 182.07 grains each—ideal for blackpowder rifles, muskets, and period-correct shooting disciplines. The double cavity design significantly increases production efficiency compared to single-cavity alternatives, allowing you to cast two balls per cycle and reduce overall reloading time.
Manufactured by Lee Precision, a trusted name in reloading equipment for over five decades, this mold features precisely engineered cavities that maintain tight dimensional tolerances essential for .495-inch ball ammunition. The integrated handles provide secure grip control during the casting process, reducing fatigue during extended production sessions and improving safety by keeping hands at a stable distance from molten lead. Cast from durable aluminum alloy, the mold withstands repeated thermal cycling without warping—a critical factor when maintaining the dimensional consistency required for accurate shooting. Each ball exits with minimal flash and sprue waste, maximizing material yield and reducing cleanup time.
This mold is essential for anyone hand-loading ammunition for blackpowder rifles, .50-caliber muskets, or historical reenactment firearms where .495-diameter balls are specification-matched to barrel dimensions. Tactical reloaders working with antique military reproductions benefit from the cost savings of casting their own ammunition in volume. The 0.95-pound tool integrates seamlessly into any existing Lee reloading setup and requires only a standard lead pot and ladle. Whether you're a competitive blackpowder shooter, historical firearms enthusiast, or serious ammunition manufacturer, the Lee Double Cavity Mold delivers the precision and durability needed for consistent, field-proven performance.
