It looks like an older Lachmiller 4 cavity. The number on the side of the mold is 411. It IS in a SAECO mold box but the box is marked by a previous owner as a 41 cal 220 SWC.. It does look correct but since I have no mold charts other than Lyman I don't know who made it or what it truly is. It is in very good condition. Will try to find a set of handles and possibly see what it does cast. If someone knows this mold please let me know. Thanks skeet028

And looks like SAECO handles should work

Thanks for the info skeettx. I did look at the SAECO Redding charts but none listed there. This one seems to have pretty straight taper on the nose. Mold is in good condition but has been sitting for a while I think. The cavities were smoked. I doubt I will ever use it but it looks like a good bullet. I also have a very early H&G 258. I have a 250 Gr WFNGC mold that I use for my bear loads for my old S&W 57. Favorite bullet in the 41 mag.

Good, I use the Ohaus 41-K-210 bullet, fun stuff
