A while back I bought from a member here a Lee 6 cavity group buy .44 full wadcutter mold. I've yet to cast with it, but plan to when the weather warms up (I do all my casting outside.) Can anyone tell me what the boolit weight is using WW? Thanks for any info, and Happy New Year! GF

I got a Lee single cavity 429-208 WC in a 'horse trade' with another member here. At that time, I did not have a 44 but had dies and another mold for a friend's 44. While at a gun show, my Wife fell in love with a Ruger SBH with a 3.75" barrel. I told her 'new gun, new caliber' and a rather sad look came over her face. I promptly informed her I already had dies and molds and 'get that gun!' I love her smile.

I load the Lee C429-240 SWC to 1250 fps, and the 208 WC to 950 - 1000 fps for tin can rolling.
