Lee 90486 18-Cavity 00 Buckshot Mold .330 12 Gauge

Description

The Lee Precision 90486 is an 18-cavity mold designed for reloading 00 (double-aught) buckshot for 12 gauge shells. Each cast produces eighteen linked pellets that can be trimmed into strands and used in standard 12 gauge shotshells. The mold is machined for consistent pellet form and is intended for batch casting of buckshot components; handles for casting are sold separately. Specifications from multiple sources indicate aluminum construction and a .330″ pellet diameter.
