    FWIW I have two rare Lee WC bullets molds---DC one is a .41 magnum 210 grain WC and the other a .45 Caliber 240 WC...also, a not so rare .44 Caliber 208 WC...all make fine cast bullets, but I do use them frequently....and I take extra good care of them.

    I won't say never as most of my lee molds get used or sent downriver. I do have a .358" 113 gr wadcutter that is single cavity. I keep wanting to see how 2 shoot in a 357 mag or max but never really get motivated to do so.

    My first two Lee molds. The old 358-150 SWC with the huge meplat and the 429-208 WC. Both in 6 cavity. For a long time, they were all I used. I have more molds now, so they don't get much use. Dusted off the 358-150 when my son decided he wanted to deer hunt for the first time. We worked up a load for my Rossi 92 and he used it to get his first deer. The rifle and the mold aren't going anywhere, except eventually to my son.

    I have a one cavity Lee 452-230 gr hp sans handles. I probably can't give it away so it's somewhere around here.......

    The one I'll keep probably forever is the fist mould I ever owned , it was given to me by a gracious member here when I first joined the cast boolits when I posted a question about reloading for my Finn m39 it's a single cavity 155-312 and I've shot thousands cast from that mould ! It's a keeper even though I don't shooot much these days with it .

    If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
