Lee Wadcutter Pistol Mould (Handles Sold Separately) - 6 Cavity TL358-148WC .358" 148 gr Fits .38 Spl .38 S&W .38 Colt New Police .357 Mag

If you're casting bullets for .38 Special, .357 Magnum, or other mid-range revolver cartridges, the Lee Wadcutter Pistol Mould is a practical, durable choice for handloaders who want consistent wad-cutter bullets without the premium price tag. This 6-cavity mould produces .358-diameter, 148-grain wadcutter projectiles—the classic target and plinking round for revolvers. Built from aluminum, the mould resists rust and won't trap lead, a significant advantage over steel alternatives that demand more frequent cleaning and maintenance.

The lightweight aluminum construction isn't just about durability; it means faster heat cycling during your casting sessions, which translates to less fatigue when you're processing volume. The mould heats up and cools down quickly, letting you maintain a steady pace at the pot without the long wait times that come with heavier cast-iron blocks. That efficiency pays off whether you're prepping ammunition for an afternoon at the range or stocking up for the season.

Keep in mind that handles and bullet lube are sold separately—you'll need to source those to get casting. The .358-inch diameter and 148-grain weight make these bullets suitable for .38 Special, .38 S&W, .38 Colt New Police, and .357 Magnum chambers. For reloaders focused on budget-friendly, accurate practice ammo, this mould delivers consistent results without unnecessary complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers can I cast bullets for with this mould?

This 6-cavity mould produces .358-inch diameter, 148-grain wadcutter bullets suitable for .38 Special, .38 S&W, .38 Colt New Police, and .357 Magnum cartridges.

Do handles and lube come with the mould?

No. Bullet mould handles and bullet lube are sold separately. You'll need to purchase those items to begin casting.

Why choose aluminum over a heavier mould?

Aluminum resists rust and won't retain lead buildup like steel or cast iron. It's also lightweight, reducing caster fatigue, and heats and cools faster, which speeds up your casting cycle and keeps your workflow efficient.

Is this mould good for target and plinking ammo?

Yes. Wadcutter bullets are designed for precision target shooting and plinking, making them ideal for practice and informal range sessions where you want accurate, budget-friendly rounds.
