Rcbs Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Bullet Mould - Double Cavity .454" 255 Gr
$178.99
The RCBS Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Bullet Mould with double cavity design lets you cast .454" diameter 255-grain pistol bullets for reloading. Built from solid cast iron and machined to precision specifications, this mould is engineered for consistent, repeatable castings shot after shot. Whether you're loading for a large-bore revolver or pursuing handgun hunting and range shooting, a quality bullet mould is the foundation of ammunition that shoots true—and RCBS has been the standard in reloading tools for over 60 years.
The two-cavity design speeds up your casting workflow without compromising precision. The steel sprue plate is held securely in place with spring washers and tempered steel screws, so there's no wobble during the casting process. Precision-ground square blocks and steel alignment pins ensure the two cavities mate perfectly every time, which means consistent bullet weight and dimensions from cavity to cavity and casting to casting.
If you're hand-loading large-bore pistol cartridges and want to control costs while maintaining quality, casting your own bullets from lead or lead-alloy ingots gives you that freedom. This mould is a purpose-built tool for serious reloaders who understand that the bullet is where accuracy and consistency begin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers and handguns can I load for with this .454" 255-grain bullet?
The .454" diameter is commonly used in large-bore handgun cartridges such as the .454 Casull. Always verify bullet diameter and weight compatibility with your specific firearm and cartridge before loading. Consult your reloading manual for safe load data.
Do I need any other equipment to use this bullet mould?
This is the casting mould only. You'll also need a lead or lead-alloy ingot source, a casting furnace or ladle to melt the lead, and a reloading press or scale if you want to sort cast bullets by weight. The mould itself handles the cavity and sprue plate function.
How many bullets can I expect to cast from this mould at once?
The double cavity design casts two bullets per pour. Your production rate depends on your furnace temperature, cooling time, and your casting rhythm—but the two-cavity layout is more efficient than a single-cavity mould.
