The Lee Six Cavity Mold .312 - 160gr 2-R is purpose-built for precision reloaders and cast bullet enthusiasts who demand consistency across high-volume production runs. This six-cavity casting tool serves law enforcement, military, and civilian shooters performing ammunition remanufacturing for .312-diameter projectiles in traditional rifle calibers. Whether you're stockpiling ammunition for duty weapons, maintaining zero in training cycles, or developing custom loads for specialized applications, this mold delivers uniformity essential to ballistic predictability and firearm reliability.
Engineered with Lee's proven ductile iron construction, the six-cavity configuration produces 160-grain bullets in a single pour cycle, maximizing output without compromising dimensional integrity. The 2-R (two-cavity return) design ensures rapid cooling and consistent weight distribution across all six cavities, critical when precision ammunition demands variance control under ±1.5 grains per projectile. The mold ships without handles, allowing users to integrate their existing casting equipment or pair with Lee's optional handle accessories, providing flexibility for operators managing multiple mold types or upgrading legacy setups without redundant purchases.
This casting mold is ideal for .312-caliber rifle ammunition reloading operations, including .30-30 Winchester, 7.62×39, and other traditional rifle platforms where cast bullets reduce component costs while maintaining sub-MOA accuracy. Tactical professionals and serious reloaders benefit from the high-volume output, enabling rapid resupply of duty or training ammunition without dependency on commercial supply chains. Compatibility extends to any lead-casting operation using standard casting furnaces and the appropriate ladle system; users must verify caliber matching before commissioning to prevent casting errors.
