The Lee Precision .490" round ball bullet mold with handles is a practical choice for shooters casting their own round balls for muzzleloading rifles, pistols, and percussion revolvers. This double-cavity mold lets you produce two finished balls per pour, speeding up your casting sessions at the bench. If you're serious about keeping costs down while maintaining consistent ammunition, a quality ball mold is essential—and Lee's aluminum construction offers real advantages over traditional steel and iron designs.
Cast from high-quality aluminum, this mold resists rust and weighs less than heavier alternatives, which matters during long casting days. The aluminum also heats and cools faster than steel or iron, letting you maintain a steadier rhythm between pours and reducing the downtime between cycles. The mold block halves are CNC-machined to tight tolerances, which minimizes the risk of fatigue cracks developing over years of use and helps you cast smooth, consistent round balls every time.
The handles are included and built for durability—no need to source them separately or jury-rig your own. That's a practical touch that makes the mold ready to work straight out of the box. Whether you're loading for a flintlock hunting rifle, a cap-and-ball revolver, or target work with a muzzleloader, this .490" cavity size delivers the ball diameter you need for those classic firearms.

The .490" diameter is a common size for muzzleloading rifles and percussion revolvers. Check your specific firearm's manual or load data to confirm the correct ball size for your gun before casting.
A double-cavity mold produces two finished balls per pour, which speeds up your casting workflow and reduces the total time spent at the casting bench compared to single-cavity designs.
Aluminum is lighter, resists rust naturally without additional seasoning, and heats and cools faster than steel or iron. Faster thermal cycling means less waiting between pours and a smoother casting rhythm.
Yes, the handles come with the mold and are ready to use—no additional purchase necessary.
