Default WTB...41 Mag mould

Of the 50 some moulds I own..Ive got (2) that cast more than 2 bullets.
both Hensley and Gibbs. They are ok if Im wanting to cast a ****load..a
****load of bullets in one caliber at one sitting..but the problem
is..Ive only got a 20lb pot (well...3 of them) and I wind up running out
of lead far too soon. I continually add lead as I cast, which means my
temps are going up and down, often times with issues.

So if its ok with you..I think Ill pass on the 6 ganger. I only have a
couple .41s, and dont know anyone local to me who has another, so really
dont need a ****load of bullets. A couple thousand on hand would do me
well for the next 10 yrs or more.


I'm not a fan of multi cavity molds. Everything in handloading is based on consistancy.
Two cavities, unless they are perfect seems to be counter-productive.

I did have a Lee 158g SWC .38 mold that was pretty decent until the sprue plate screw came
unhinged. That was a decent two cavity mold.
