mikeh3 Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Can anyone recommend a .224 and .264 cast mold? I need something close to 55 grains. I would like to use these in a 222, 223, 22-250 and 6.5x55 (140 - 160 grain). I don't think Lee makes molds for these calibers. Any suggestions appreciated.

AzRednek Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 In my opinion SAECO makes the best bullet mold but their cost is considerably higher than Lee. You can save a few bucks buying the Lee brand handles for their 6-cavity mold and use them on SAECO molds. http://www.redding-reloading.com/PDFfiles/bulletchart.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These molds look like what I need. I'll look at the Lee handles also. Thanks again, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzRednek Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Thanks AzRednek, I looked at the link. These molds look like what I need. I'll look at the Lee handles also. Thanks again, Mike Mike if you get the Lee handles with Saeco moulds you might have to open the hole the screw goes through just a hair. With my two Saeco moulds one fit the Lee handle perfect, the other I had to open the screw hole slightly. You might also try posting in the cast bullet group, somebody may have a deal on used moulds. You might also try RCBS and Lyman's websites. The cast bullet group can probably give you more sources on where to look. http://www.castboolits.gunloads.com/index.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
