Lee Six Cavity Mold - .429 240gr Swc No Handles

The Lee Six Cavity Mold in .429 240gr SWC is a precision reloading tool designed for shooters who demand consistency and efficiency in ammunition production. This mold is engineered for handloaders working with .44 caliber cartridges—primarily .44 Magnum and .44 Special—making it ideal for hunters, sport shooters, and law enforcement armorers who reload large-bore pistol and revolver ammunition. The six-cavity design dramatically increases throughput compared to single or two-cavity alternatives, allowing serious reloaders to produce quality bullets in volume without sacrificing precision.

Manufactured by Lee Precision, this mold features six independent cavities that produce identical 240-grain semi-wadcutter (SWC) projectiles per cycle. The SWC profile is optimized for accuracy and reliable feeding in both revolvers and semi-automatic pistols chambered in .44 caliber; the semi-wadcutter design provides a flat nose section that improves target performance and controlled expansion in hunting applications. Cast from Lee's durable aluminum-based alloy, the mold withstands repeated heating cycles and thermal stress without dimensional drift, ensuring batch-to-batch uniformity that handloaders depend on for precision ammunition. The no-handles configuration keeps weight minimal at 1.3 pounds and allows users to integrate the mold with custom or existing handles for ergonomic preference.

This mold suits intermediate to advanced reloaders who already own melting equipment and handle systems, or those who prefer to standardize mold cavities across multiple projects. The 240-grain weight strikes a practical balance between velocity, recoil, and terminal performance in magnum revolver hunting scenarios. Users should pair this mold with a compatible Lee melting pot, ladle, and handles; the standardized .429-inch cavity diameter ensures proper fit within Lee's ecosystem of reloading accessories. Proper mold temperature management and lead selection will yield consistent, quality bullets suitable for both precision handgun competition and field use.
