Anyone know a supplier selling the new Lee mold blocks? I ordered a Lee 312-155 2R and thought with all the recent buying frenzy it would have been the new style. No big deal, but I was looking forward to trying the new design.

All of the old design moulds are at the shelves of stores!
Lee are by now only shipping new design moulds (they say)

I ordered a LEE 410-175 mould from Titan Reloading a little over 2 weeks ago and got the new style mould. I love the new style. They operate just like my other Lyman, RCBS and Miha moulds. Think Mr. Lee did himself and us a big favor. Love his products and wish him well.

I do believe they are churning 24/7 at full throttle.
An what a fine product it has become.

My mold arrived yesterday. I ordered from Grafs and they had been out of stock for some time. I place my order when I got the email they had returned in stock. It sadly was the old style. Like I said no big deal it worked fine. Just really thought the old ones would have been sold out by now.

Would not be suprised if all the old stock has been sold already in the buying frenzy. I got a 356-102-1R about a month ago and it was the new style.

I got one today, and was SUPRISED.
I was first taken by the new label, then I noticed the screw attachmant to the handles, and the steel alingment pin set-up. Time will tell.

Could we be looking at having to buy handles for ALL new type moulds shortly?

Funny, I had that label but the old mold style. I did not notice the label being new until you mentioned it just now.

Was the first thing that crossed my mind, handles might be an option...

I noticed it right quick when it was wrapped to hold the mold closed , maybe for shipping? or damage liability control.

Remember the screw is'nt really a screw.
It has way steep threading and i suspect it is pressen in. It can be dismantled but not often othervise it will rattle apart.
