I found this mold in a plastic bag under my loading table in a box under other stuff and don't remember buying it.

The Lyman mold is marked 356242DV and under that is 298. In the bottom left corner on the same side is 2 H.

So, do I have a 90gr 9mm mold? What puzzles me is that this is a weight i'd never buy as I use 115gr or heavier in this caliber.

Teemu, I went to that table for a look. I was hoping someone could tell me which from the stampings without casting some. 121gr is more likely for me but if I got a good deal who knows? :p

The 121 grain version will have two lube grooves. The 92 grain will have only one lube groove.
