mark each of these custom molds.

I just got two 44 Molds mixed up and have no idea without casting boolits and measuring them, which is which.

You could pick yourself up a cheap set of metal stamps at Harbor Freight, and even put:

"The Custom TCLouis Mold"

or, "LEE Made THIS for TC"

or,

Those harbor letter stamps are SOFT!!! Don't waste your money.

Get an electric engraver for the same five bucks instead.

Been there, and exchanged them til I got tired of messing with them!

Steve-

I'm sending you all my molds. Put on for- "The Great Pat Marlin".. :mrgreen:


You know you can take a torch to those soft HB stamps and temper them. Be a good science project.

I've heard that Lee with stamp them with the design identifier but I'm not sure what they charge for this. When I send in the TLC460-425-RFB order we are going to find out...

I'm not sure which molds you have mixed up as there was a lot of 44 activity this year... the TLC432 will have the smallest nose diameter (meplat) and will be the shortest boolit...
