A wise caster would have one mold for each caliber (30-30, 308, 30-06 all could get along fine on one mold, for example 311041) or two if you had a rifle and handgun in the same caliber (35 Remington, 38/357 would have a 200 gr rifle mold and a 158gr handgun mold). On the other hand, how many of us are wise enough to pick the best mold first.
Awe heck, I think I'm over 20 molds just for the 32's at this point. I seem to buy more whenever I get the chance.
Sickness? maybe, but it's still cheaper than therapy, and a heck of a lot more fun.

Collecting .32 molds. Please let me know if you have one you don't need, cause I might "need" it!
Neat Question. I have 9 right now, but two more on order.

Ok, I have to ask. Why in the world would someone need more than one mold for each caliber?
If enough pressure is applied, it'll go
Oh Lord, I've got molds for calibers I don't think they make guns for anymore. I've got molds that I bought and have no idea when and molds that I have no idea where they came from.
If you would have asked me, I would have probably said 15-16, so I counted them. I'm at 36+2 on order. Wow. I would have never guessed that.
I'm a mold horder, please don't send help or turm me in I have over 80 molds Bought my first in '82) about 25% pistol and round ball, the rest rifle molds from 22 - 50 cal. I don't even have a 50.

Thought I had around 20 , Wrong 36
Anyone have a Lyman 446187 mold 470gn heavy version that they want to sell?
I am desperate for one. Apologies if this is not the right place for posting this.

My Dad cast for over 50 years until he passed away, I have been casting as long as I could shoot, at age 6 and now I am passed the 1/2 century mark. Counting the collection from my dad plus mine (still growing). I am over 250 moulds and still don't have enough. Just bought one from Swede last week, I think this is an illness that will follow me to the grave....BTW the moulds go with me when I leave.
I don't remember what my selection was when I first posted in this thread. I now have 24.
As an aside, I have been very tired and not interested in much lately because of working MAJOR overtime. Tonight I pulled out my box of molds and was opening them and just looking at the cavities. Like a kid looking at his baseball card collection. It perked me up and made me feel better.
just started reloading......i only got 1 lee 6 cav .452 228RN mold pathetic i know but i have to start somewhere.
Hey! I started out with the 2 cavity TL version of the .45 round nose. Now I've got over 75 molds(haven't counted since I posted on this poll) and am waiting for 2 or 3 more GB's. I have to admit that I have several that I've never used.
Be careful. They are worse than rabbits.
