Lee 2 cavity alignment pins ?

[roysha]

All of my 2 cavity LEE molds that a bought in the past had the "bars" that aligned the blocks by fitting into a "vee" groove in the opposing bock. I never cared for the system but it seemed to work OK and for the price to try a particular bullet, it wasn't that big of a deal. A couple of weeks ago I bought a LEE 2 cavity mold and it has the more conventional taper pin and ring style of alignment.

Has LEE gone to that style or is it just this particular mold?

Before anyone states the obvious, yes I can contact LEE for the answer but I thought it might be of interest to other users of the 2 cavity molds since I know some folks like to use the LEE molds to convert to HP. With the former style, that was a really huge pain.

I think I like the old bars better. I have an old 230 45 ACP Lee that the seams are hard to see.

The new LEE 2 cavity molds have steel alignment pins.
I was hoping that they could be modified to fit my Master Caster but there is not enough material to attach the keys on the side.
In my opinion it is an improvement that will make the mold last longer!
