    WTB mold alignment pins

    I am looking for a source for the LEE 6 cavity alignment style mold pins.

    Can anyone recommend a source or sell me some?

    I want to make a 20 cavity 22 cal core mold

    I bought some from LEE, they are an odd size. I may still have them.
    I ended up making my own like Magma uses.
    I used a 60* center drill to make the female part and turned the male part.
    How many do you need?

    I have seen a few mold makers just use roll pins

    I got some from Lee about 8 years ago and they also make some over size. Measure the old ones. I had a problem with a new mold with a pin coming lose and Lee told me I got the mold too hot and sent me some over size pins. They did offer to fix it.

    I found the ones I bought many years ago from LEE and they mic at .301 for the female and.2995 for the male.
    Really oddball sizes, that must be why I didn’t use them!
    Magma uses .313 and a 5/16” reamer or new drill makes the right size hole.
