    WTS: Ideal .452 4 cavity

    I got this years ago on this forum; it is a SWC, #452389 with a slightly rounded bullet tip. The mould is in good shape. There has been no rust or abuse. The strike plate has the dished area along the cavity holes that makes for a nice, neat sprue. I used this bullet for years in my S&W model 25s, and they cut nice clean, accurate holes in paper. I just weighed 10 I cast years ago; they average 170-173 grains. The mould is mounted on Lyman "nutcracker" handles also in good shape, though there is minor charring on the underside from years of pre-heating on a hot plate.

    I want $100.00 for the mould and handles. I will throw in 103 bullets, un lubed, and unsized, and 182 bullets that are lubed with Lee tumble lube, but unsized. These lubed bullets are what I weighed, so the lube is probably adding a grain or two of weight. The bullets are of a hard alloy. I would ship this in a USPS medium flat rate box, included in the asking price. I do not accept PayPal or other electronic payment. (Sorry, younger guys) I prefer a USPS money order, or failing that, a personal check.

    I don't do pictures. I went to some effort to describe this, and I'll answer any questions I can.
