All,
I snagged a single cavity Lyman 356402 conical 9mm mold off fleabay some time ago. It was a mold only, with an aluminum sleeve to keep the halves together in storage (and stamped with the mold data). My intention was to simply use my handles from my Lyman 2 cavity 429421 because everything I can find states that the small handles work on single or double molds.
My issue is that when mounted to the handles the single 356402 will not close. The leading edges come together but the rear seam is open about 1/16th of an inch. The mold came with a sample pour and the bullet looks fine. Do I need to find a set of handles specifically for a single cav mold?
Thanks.
