The Lee Semi-Wadcutter Pistol Mould in .452-diameter, 252 grains (brand part no. 90356) casts a heavier semi-wadcutter option for .45-caliber pistol and revolver reloaders. Lee offers this mould style across a wide range of grain weights, and the blocks are aluminum with steel handles permanently attached, complete with a strong, comfortable grip. Being aluminum rather than steel or iron, the mould won’t rust in storage, its light weight reduces caster fatigue, and it heats and cools quicker than a heavier block.
