Lyman
The Lyman Pistol Bullet Mould in .38/.357 Cal. is a dedicated casting tool for handloaders who want to produce consistent, cost-effective rounds for revolvers and semi-automatic pistols. Whether you're loading for target practice, hunting, or competition, this mould lets you cast bullets to your exact specifications rather than relying on factory ammunition. Lyman has built a reputation for precision tooling in the reloading space, and this mould reflects that commitment to quality and repeatability.
Bullet casting gives you complete control over your ammunition. You choose the alloy hardness, bullet weight, and design to match your firearm and intended use. The .38/.357 Cal. mould handles both popular cartridges, making it versatile for shooters with multiple platforms. Once you've cast and sized your bullets, you integrate them into your handloading workflow—from powder charge to final inspection. Many shooters find cast bullets deliver excellent accuracy at a fraction of the cost of jacketed rounds, especially for high-volume shooting.
This is a mould only; sizer dies, top punches, and mould handles are sold separately and must be sourced to complete your casting setup. Before you begin, confirm you have a suitable mould handle and that your sizer die matches the bullet diameter you'll be casting. Proper sizing is essential for reliable feeding and safety.
| Caliber | .38/.357 Cal. |
| Product Type | Pistol Bullet Mould |
| Brand | Lyman |
| Cavity Count | Double or Four-Cavity (check listing variant) |
You'll need a mould handle (sold separately) to hold the mould cavities during pouring, a sizer die and top punch (also sold separately) to size the cast bullets to finished diameter, and a lead alloy source. You'll also want a casting furnace or ladle to heat and dispense molten lead safely.
Yes. This mould is designed for .38/.357 Cal., so the cavities work for both cartridges. Your sizer die selection will determine the final bullet diameter, so choose a .38 or .357 sizer based on your intended load.
The mould itself is a casting tool, separate from your reloading press. You'll use it with a mould handle and lead furnace to cast bullets, then use your press and sizer die to finish them. Confirm your sizer die is compatible with .38/.357 ammunition.
Beyond the mould, handle, and sizer die, you'll need a safe way to heat and pour molten lead—typically a casting furnace. Wear appropriate protective gear (gloves, eye protection, apron) when working with lead. Always follow safe casting practices and dispose of lead responsibly.
