The Lee Precision 365-95-1R Double Cavity Mold produces a .365 diameter 95 grain round nose bullet suitable for cartridges like 9MM MAKAROV. The mold features machined aluminum mold blocks and a hard anodized sprue plate with a tangential cut off which helps to eliminate the nip at the sprue cut off. Hardwood handles are included.
Lee machines their mold blocks from aluminum making them rust resistant. Aluminum molds heat up and cool down faster than iron or steel molds and good bullets can usually be produced only after a few casts. In addition, aluminum blocks are one-third the weight of iron or steel mold blocks offering the bullet caster less fatigue during extended casting sessions. To ensure the best possible bullets, mold block halves are clamped together then lathe-bored for unmatched roundness and size control.
The molds are so precise that most Lee bullets do not require sizing. Weights given are Lee’s weights with suggested alloy; actual weight may vary due to the alloy mixture used. For best results, proper mold lubrication is essential during the bullet casting process.
