Lee still lists a numberC.309-180R bullet mold, but I can't find one. If anyone has one of these laying around and not in use, I would like to buy it. The Mold casts a .317 bore rider, gas check bullet. I have an 8.15Rx46 stalking rifle with a strange bore diameter, it is ,318. I could take that bullet and powder coat it, and I would be close to the bullet diameter that I need. If anyone has any kind of mold that drops a bullet from .317-.321, preferably with a flat nose and gas check, that you're not using, I would be interested in purchasing it from you. It has to be a gas check.

Thanks,

Mashburn

Hello Ken,

I pulled up the Lee bullet molds pictures and info again, just a little while ago, and guess what, I didn't have my glasses on before and mis-read the little print. The .317 was the ballistic coefficient. I guess I should wear my glasses more than I do. I have come up with a plain base mold that works so I'm not in a desperate situation.

Hello David,

I guess you have seen my reply to ken's post. If your Lee 200 gr. mold is a gas check mold, I would be interested in it for my single shot 30-30.
