Let me look
I might still have a 2 cavity Lee 175 gr 40 mold

I mainly switched to Lee 6 cavity molds and custom molds

A nice place to look and learn is http://castboolits.gunloads.com/forum.php

Trust me on this one, if you did not buy your mold yet, get the 6 cavity Lee. The pic shows the 175 TL for use in my .40 S&W, a Beretta 96. I will never (never say never) buy a 2 cavity mold again if I can get it in a 6 cavity.

yeah, I've actually got this exact mold on order with FS Reloading - it showed in stock when I placed the order online then when I finished paying it showed on backorder - I didn't cancel the order, just figured I'd let it ride and not cancel until if&when I found something else...which is not proving easy.

Fred, which Lee mold would you suggest for 30-30? what grain bullet do you get the best results from?

I have had great results with the Lee 170 RF with gas check. (2 Cavity only) I run them through the Lee .309 sizer which seats the gas check, smear some liquid alox on the driving bands, set them over nite on wax paper, load them the next day. Very economical way to make your projectiles for your .30-30. You will need a Lyman "M" die or the likes to flair the mouth of the case a bit just like you do with the .40 S&W.
