I have a Lee 105grs SWC mold with 6 cavity's and it can barely get my bullets out of it, i have tried casting at different tempratures, smoking it, not smoking it, i cant see that its me doing smth wrong since i have other Lee Molds and they all release bullets pretty simple..

Sounds like you need to read the "leementing" sticky at the top of the page on this subforum. It's a great bullet and will be well worth the trouble to get it casting smoothly.

This is Leementing with a 2 cavity, but it is the same process with a 6 cavity. I've done both, time WELL INVESTED ! !

If you do this with your mold, I can assure you the bullets won't stick anymore.

That was my first real problem mould (years ago)and the fact that the bullets are real light doesn't help any. That was back before I knew of this board and the things you can do to correct it. Do like the others said and leement it.
