Lee Round Nose Pistol Mould - Double Cavity (Handles Included) .356" 124 gr

The Lee Round Nose Pistol Mould with double cavity and included handles lets you cast .356" round nose bullets at 124 grains—a practical choice for handloaders who want to control their ammunition from the ground up. Cast-bullet reloading costs significantly less per round than jacketed rounds, and with a purpose-built mold, you get consistent results without the guesswork. This is the kind of tool that pays for itself after a few hundred rounds, especially if you shoot pistol competitively or train regularly.

Lee's aluminum mold blocks heat and cool quickly, which matters when you're casting in volume. That thermal responsiveness means faster cycles and less waiting between pours—and it keeps fatigue down during extended casting sessions. The double-cavity design doubles your output per pour cycle compared to single-cavity alternatives. Aluminum construction also keeps the overall weight manageable, a real benefit if you're hand-casting at the bench for hours.

The crimped block halves are engineered to close precisely, producing bullets that are uniformly round and sized correctly shot after shot. Consistency in cast-bullet diameter translates directly to consistent velocity and accuracy downrange, which is why dedicated reloaders invest in quality molds. The mold blocks are rust-resistant, so they'll hold up to the moisture and wear of a busy reloading room without degrading.

Handles are included, so you can get started immediately without sourcing extras. If you're building a cast-bullet handloading setup or adding another caliber to your existing operation, this Lee mold is a workhorse that will serve you for years.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers and bullet weights can I cast with this mold?

This mold casts .356" diameter round nose bullets weighing 124 grains. It's sized specifically for that specification.

Do I need to buy handles separately, or are they included?

Handles are included with this mold, so you can begin casting immediately without additional purchases.

Why does aluminum heat up faster than iron or steel molds?

Aluminum's thermal properties allow it to heat and cool more quickly than heavier metals like iron or steel. This faster thermal cycling means quicker casting cycles and less fatigue during extended sessions, since you're not holding a heavy, slow-to-respond tool.

What does "crimped block halves" mean, and why does it matter?

The block halves are crimped to close with precise alignment, which helps the mold produce bullets that are uniformly round and correctly sized. Consistency in bullet diameter translates to uniform velocity and better accuracy when you reload and fire those rounds.
