Is there a bullet mould available for 41 long colt (Anything hollow or solid base) Jethunter is the guy to buy from. However it would be nice to have a mould just in case.

There are places that will custom build. Check out NOE bullet molds.

Try Buffalo Arms. They have them under their own brand name, but they are a little pricey

Accurate molds will cut anything you want and fast. Also MP Molds (MiHec) has cut them in the past and may have stock if you email him.

There are a couple that were made over the years, some that have been re-made recently as well.

You pretty much need to figure out which bullet you need, then seek out and find. There were at least two different bore sizes used during .41 Colt production. There were two different styles as well, heeled and plain. A heeled bullet is like the one on a .22 rimfire, where a portion of the bullet base fits inside the case, and the bullet has a step in it, up to match the outside diameter of the case. The plain bullet fits inside the case in it's entirety.

Heeled molds ar a minor PITA to make, as judged by the few that are readily available.

Lyman number 386177 seems the go-to when you can find one. IIRC, NOE made a run of a similar mold a year or two back.

This site has about the best list of available (at one time or another) molds for the .41LC. http://harryo.sixshootercommunity.org/ I would suggest that you are like to need to spend a fair few bucks to get your hands upon one, and no small amount of time looking.

Best of luck in the search.

Didn't see this thread before. Old West Bullet Molds makes heeled molds for 41LC bullets.
