Lee 1-Cavity Original Minie Ball Bullet Mold 575-500M (575 Diameter) 500 Grain
Lee Precision 1-Cavity Bullet Molds are a great choice for reloaders
looking for a quality mold at an affordable price. 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 CNC machined for
unmatched roundness and size control. Weights given are Lee's weights
with suggested alloy; actual weight may vary due to the alloy mixture
used. Lee's Modern Minie Ball Bullets are Lee's most accurate Minie-Ball
and they make nice clean holes in targets.

A note from Lee Precision on their bullet molds:
Lee Precision does not recommend the use of any spray type mold release products in their bullet molds. The use of such products may result in a build-up of the release product in the bullet mold cavity, reducing the diameter of the bullets cast from the treated mold. Instead, Lee Precision recommends smoking the mold with a wooden match, beeswax candle or a butane lighter as described in their provided bullet mold instructions.
