I have this mold and it works very well. Accurate, feeds and cycles reliably in the six 9mm’s I own.
I picked up this 8 cavity 148 gr WC mold from MP, it definitely does what it is suppose to do.

Got my first casting session in with this MP .359 148 grain DEWC mold I got about 6 months ago.

I think I will, my .454 Ruger SBH needs a playmate.

Very nice!! I have toyed with picking one of those up for a while now.

I powder coat and have never used a lube/sizer so I am no help. I just wanted to say congrats and welcome to the obsession.
Yes sir, congratulations on the retirement. Just to throw it out there, I ordered a 210 grain .432 mold 6 months ago and it is outstanding.
I wont try to answer for dverna but as for me, any gun with that price tag is for range fun and that is it. Id also rather carry something with less weight like the 3” King Cobra.
I have a handful of MP molds and almost all of them have been excellent with the exception of one. It is a gas check .44 Larsen mold and like yours the shank is to big making the bullets useless for...
I agree about the “Classic” label that S&W tries to push. Just leave it at a dash number and call it good.

I use the Redding for .475 Linebaugh, works great.

I have this mold as well. It is a very good performer.
Thank you for the heads up but yeh, unfortunately I missed out.
I would like to see 32-20 available, or at least on backorder.
You would be rolling the dice a little bit. My Winchester’s bore slugged at .309 and I was fortunate enough that the Lee cast at .311 with my alloy which allowed me to size to .310.
I have this 170 grain Lee mold that my Winchester likes.

I have never tried CFE but HP-38 and Universal are all that I use for light .44 loads. I typically use .44mag brass downloaded to .44spl loads but HP-38 also works very well with .44spl brass.
I have the XRing for .410 to reload for my Bond Arms derringer. It does exactly what it’s suppose to do, I have no complaints.

The Lee pots are good to go. I don’t have a PID which would make temp control nice, I just use a lead thermometer I got from Rotometal’s that has served me well.
I am a fan but I don’t have one yet. I am set up to reload for .500 and already have a couple hundred rounds ready to go for when I finally get one. I also have the Lee 440 grain mold that you...

The only thing I run through my Winchester 30-30 are my cast 150 and 170 grain bullets. The 150’s are just over 2300 fps using Leverevolution powder, I haven’t noticed any leading worth mentioning.
