    Lee 6 cavity 358156 Plain base

    Some time ago I bought from another member a Lee 358156 plain base 6 cavity that had been beagled and a screw tapped into the mould body and put under the sprue cam. This thing should last forever.
    Does anyone remember this group buy?
    I can't find any info on it anywhere.
    Thoughts?
    Collector and shooter of guns and other items that require a tax stamp, Lead and brass scrounger. Never too much brass, lead or components in inventory! Always looking to win beauty contests with my reloads.

    Yes, I remember that one. Its one of the many Lee group buys that I got in on in the old days. My mold is an easy caster and drops very nice bullets, makes a large pile fast. I'm sure you will like yours.

    I bought one in that group buy. I've never used it. Maybe some day I will get back to revolver shooting.

    This group buy was back when we first started with them.

    Could some one please help me understand this ? Was the head of the screw being used for a bearing surface for the steel cam ?....Jeff
