460 is one of the very best molds for .45 ACP.

I wouldn't trade my 460 for anything, good find there. As for the handles I took the cheap way out, I bought a set of lee handles and milled them down to fit lyman molds.

Handles for a 4 cavity Lyman mould are only available from 2 sources that I know. Actual Lyman brand handles, and ones made by forum member Red River Rick. I own both, and both are quality products, and both sell for around $35.00 The new handles are all the 'plier' type, older Lyman handles are the 'clamshell' style with the hinge at the far end of the handles, rather than in the middle. Some people prefer the clamshell style, I don't.
