    Yours has the deeper lube groove plus the base band and driving band look to be the same size, where mine has the shallower lube groove, the old Lyman version of the Keith boolit.

    My first mould was a 4 cavity Lyman 358429 with a rounded lube groove. I found no difference in performance to the version I use now. Just my two.

    Yesterday I managed to cast and lubrisize a little over 500 each of 170gr .359" and 248gr
    .431" Lee boolits. Today the 175 lee .40 is on the schedule. I'm hoping to get about 1200 of those.

    Bwana- The 175 Lee is the next mold I want to buy. Specifically, a 6-cav. Post up some pics of your .40's when you get done and share your opinion of them please.

    Well I got 31 lbs of the Lee 175gr (casts out at 180) .40 cal. That should be a little more than 1200. Will have to wait until tomorrow for lubrisizing as we are watching the Grandson. I use the 6 cavity mold and I would post pictures; but, some time ago I got tired of trying to figure out why I couldn't post any more pictures and gave up trying to do so.

    Today I did 1200 of 356-125-TC and 200 401-175-TC...both on 6 bangers. Yesterday I did 1012 of the 401-175-TC's. Tomorrow will most likely be some 452-230-TC.

    Today I cast about 2000 135 grn Round Nose 9mm with a Magma mold in my Master Caster. Water dropped WW with a little linotype and tin added. Tomorrow load (from a previous casting session) and shoot! Probably size and lube this bunch also.

    b2roesel;
    It seems you like those TC's in auto pistols, eh-h-h? I do, too! I run the Lee 230 TC (conventional lube groove) in my .45 ACP 625's as they sure make for a nice, quick reload with full moon clips.

    They also feed nice in the 1911's.

    Just got done casting 10lbs of 357446, 162 SWC for my 357 revolver and lever action. Came out a bit fuzzy, they look great if you squint just right, but still fuzzy.

    Just heating up the pot now to cast out about 10 pounds of 358-125-RF boolits. This is turning out to be a favorite round of mine

    A few pounds of RCBS 32-90-CM, first time with this new mould. It started casting quite well about the time I gave up. I'll finish up the pot after I get a chance to give them a look over. It was also my first time with something that was not 45 caliber or larger. Kind of like learning all over again.
