Lee Truncated Cone Pistol Mould (Handles/Lube Sold Separately) - 6 Cavity TL452-230TC .452" 230 gr$48.75
Availability: In Stock
The Lee Truncated Cone Pistol Mould is a 6-cavity bullet-casting tool built for serious handloaders who cast volume. This .452" 230-grain mould delivers the round-nosed, rebated design that many shooters prefer for reliable feeding and consistent ballistics. If you're casting for .45 ACP, .45 Colt, or similar cartridges, this mould is engineered to produce repeatable, quality projectiles without the fuss of commercial ammunition costs or supply chains.
Lee designed this mould with production efficiency in mind. The 6-cavity block means you're pouring six rounds per cycle—a serious speed advantage over single-cavity tools. Steel bushings and alignment pins keep the cavities locked in true, and the cam-operated sprue plate does the heavy lifting so you're not pounding away with a mallet like you would with simpler designs. The hard-anodized sprue plate is held securely by wave washers, and since all cavities are CNC machined, size and roundness stay consistent batch after batch. The aluminum block construction is intentional: aluminum conducts heat efficiently and performs exceptionally well for the casting process.
Keep in mind that handles and bullet lube are sold separately, so factor those into your setup if you don't already have them on hand. This is a no-nonsense mould for the reloader who takes casting seriously and wants reliable, cost-effective projectiles.
| Brand | Lee Precision |
| Mould Type | Truncated Cone Pistol |
| Number of Cavities | 6 |
| Bullet Diameter | .452" |
| Bullet Weight | 230 gr |
| Part Number | 452-230TC |
| Handles Included | No (sold separately) |
| Lube Included | No (sold separately) |
This mould casts .452" diameter, 230-grain bullets, making it suited for .45 ACP, .45 Colt, and other cartridges that use that bullet diameter and weight. Always verify compatibility with your specific load data before casting.
Yes. Handles and bullet lube are not included and must be purchased separately. You'll need Lee handles (or compatible handles from another supplier) and casting lube to use this mould.
While the 6-cavity design is optimized for volume production, the cam-operated sprue plate and precision-machined cavities make it reliable for any serious reloader. The real advantage comes into play when you're casting regularly and want efficiency and consistency.
Lee chose aluminum for its exceptional heat-transfer properties during the casting process. The material is paired with steel bushings and CNC-machined cavities to ensure precision and durability across high-volume casting cycles.
