Lee 2-Cavity Bullet Mold 459-500-3R 45-70 Government (459 Diameter) 500 Grain Pointed Round Nose
Lee 2-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.

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.
