I recently obtained a bunch of molds from an estate. Some of them I am unfamiliar with and need some help identifying what caliber they are designed to shoot in. Any information anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated. I'm sure I cannot use all of them and will probably advertise some of them for sale here. Thanks.

1. Ballisticast 1412 GC 2 cav. .480 411 gr.

2. LBT 510 510 LFN .512 505 gr. 2 cav

3. LBT 456 280 K .4565 279 gr. 4 cav

4. LBT 502 450 WLN .5045 447.7 gr. 4 cav

5. LBT 456 250 K

6. LBT 460 440 M .4625 436.9 gr. 436.9 gr.

7. LBT 460 420 WLN GC .464 422.2 gr. 4 cav

8. LBT 460 470 M

Some of the molds had bullets in them and the diameters listed were measured from these bullets along with the weights.
Thanks

It may be a week or so before I sort all of this out and decide what to sell but if I get rid of #3 I will give dibs to Rusty Marlin on that one.
