The Lee Precision 90442 delivers consistent .454 caliber round balls for black powder enthusiasts and historical firearms shooters. This double cavity design doubles production efficiency while maintaining the dimensional accuracy Lee molds are known for.

What Makes This Different

Unlike single cavity molds that slow down production, this double cavity configuration casts two identical .454 round balls simultaneously. The precision-machined aluminum construction ensures uniform bullet weight and diameter shot after shot. Each cavity produces round balls weighing approximately 128 grains, perfect for .45 caliber black powder revolvers and rifles.
