    Got a Lyman mold, curious about it.

    It matches the illustrations I have found of the Lyman 457193, but what is the meaning of the extra 0W & the L O?

    Non pivot side
    Lyman
    4571930W (no extra spacing between any of the characters)
    853
    L O

    Pivot side
    Lyman (Maker)

    853 (Match number)

    Thanks!
    Great FAQs, but does not address the question of "but what is the meaning of the extra 0W & the L O?"

    The OW most likely is to designate the specific cherry used to cut the mold. A quick email to lyman will get you your answer.
