    How many molds

    I know this is like asking how many guns you own, but I was curious what the majority here owns in mold numbers.

    Enough for everything I've got--except 38/357 and 7mm08---but I'm working to correct that shortcoming.

    Every caliber should have at least two bullet molds, just for fun. Have way over a dozen.

    I just count them using troll numbers...one, two, many......I have no idea how many but not enough. There are a few specific ones I'm still looking for and there are always "Targets-of-Opportunity".

    Your poll is way too limiting!

    My money is on 45 2.1. I don't think anybody is as sick as he is. I only have 75 or 80, he's got more than that in Lee six hole group buy moulds, I'm sure.

    Someone once said about guns , if you know how many you have it ain't enough . With that in mind , I don't think I know how many are in the dungeon . I have managed to buy a mold I didn't think I had one of only to find another just like it later .

    About 120 as of today but in the last few years I've sold off way more than that. Trying to cosolidate as age catches up to me.

    Somewhere between 65 and 75, lost count and bought a few recently that aren't
    in the list yet.
