Heck, I'm watching $20 single and two cavity Lee molds soar to over $100 on Ebay. It's a joke. Many of them are listing in their descriptions that Lee has discontinued making many round ball...

Echo, from my understanding.. the firearm in question was a Glock 19 (9mm) and he had a Scherer magazine, well, at least one, which if I understand correctly, holds 30 rounds.
