Perfect thanks, just got my 500 and need to do some loading before i go broke lol. I bought the lee 440 grain mold and am going to try the tumble lube method and see how that pans out.

just got my mold in the mail today and cast some up after cleaning the mold and boy are they sharp! they weigh in at 398gr gas checked and lubed, 380gr as cast.
can't wait to see how they shoot.
Would you sell 50 gas checked lubed and ready for reloading?
I was looking at the same one from NOE but for .44 mag. My only 44 mag gun being a lever action with tube mag made me not buy it 
Do you find the tips easily damaged? I have some sort-of-pointy moulds and fine the tips sometimes get bent over from handling. With an even sharper point it seems like it could happen even more easily.

So far they've been fine as long as they go in the luber sizer straight. Also I when I start going to fast with casting the tips bend a little bit.

Question about the molds, do they come with handles or do you need to buy them seperate? If you buy them seperate what handles should i buy? Sorry kind of new to casting .
Thanks for any help
Thanks for any help
NOE moulds do not come with handles but Lee, Lyman, or RCBS handles will fit; they are all pretty standard.
I use Lee ones but had to file them down a touch since they where a little too thick and the mould blocks couldn't move freely on them.

as said above, NOE, mihec (mp molds), and lee 6 cavity molds don't ship with handles, i use lee handles at $12 per set of handles.
i got mine from titan reloading, but you being in hammilton should check out higgisons or hummason for lee products.
