Greetings!

I have a bullet mold that appears to have been orphaned, and I'm trying to identify a comparable mold for load development.

I have a pre-RCBS OHAUS mold marked 38168K. After RCBS acquired OHAUS, they didn't include the 38168K bullet in the RCBS Cast Bullet Manual. Internet searches turn up little information. However, by comparing a silhouette of the Lyman 358429 to the cavity of the OHAUS 38168K, the bullets would appear to be identical.

My question: do the Lyman 358429 and the OHAUS 38168K cast the same bullet?

As always, thanks in advance for your help!

The 38168K would be a 38 caliber 168 gr Keith style boolit.

I doubt it's the exact same as the 328429 but it should be close.
