    RCBS Mold Handle Pin Retaining Screw

    #$%^$@! I dropped the mold handle pin retaining screw on one of my molds and have lost it. I am wondering where I might find another one of these. Anyone have an idea? Thanks.

    Screw can be found at almost any hardware store. Allen head but I don't remember the screw size and pitch. The retaining pin as mentioned is an old needle bearing. If it is missing you could cut a drill bit of similar size or call RCBS.

    It is simply a hardened pin, held in place by an allen head screw. The possibilities for replacement are endless. This is probably the most practical handle retaining system out there, and I usually replace my H&G mould pins with this because the H&G style get fragile and break over time.

    Thanks, all. I've not lost the pin, just the screw.
