The Lee Precision 90486 mold produces 18 linked 00 buckshot pellets in a single pour, streamlining ammunition production for 12-gauge shotgun loads. This steel construction mold delivers consistent pellet diameter and weight uniformity critical for tight patterns and reliable cycling.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-cavity molds that require multiple pours, this 18-cavity design completes an entire 00 buckshot load in one operation. The linked pellet configuration maintains proper spacing during the casting process, eliminating the guesswork of individual pellet alignment. Steel construction provides superior heat retention compared to aluminum alternatives, resulting in more consistent fill-out and fewer rejected pellets.Key Features
