IDEAL MOULD Handles????Will these fit a

new lyman double cavity mould? I have 3 sets and no moulds???

[anachronism]

single cavity (small) handles fit single cavity moulds. Double cavity handles fit 2 cavity & large single cavity moulds, which are cut in large blocks. 4 cavity moulds use the nutcracker style handles. I understand that there was a change in mould handles several years ago, but all my handles are the older type, so I can't comment on them.

There are also at least two different small handles. I have a bunch of them and some fit some blocks and not others. Evidently there were some changes over the years...

I am guessing you have three sets of double cavity mold handles. If you are not going to use them, put them in the for sale section on here, I can guarantee you will sell them fast. My last 3 sets of molds I needed to buy new handles, I could not find used anywhere. And new ones are not cheap, I think I paid $36.00 for a set of double cavity RCBS mold handles the Lyman are about $5.00 less. I got mine from Midsouth, and that was the cheapest I could find.

I got a new Lyman 30 cal. double mould,this week,and all three sets fit it!!!!

Then you do indeed have 3 pairs of double cavity handles. Now, go buy a couple more double cavity moulds. Waste not, want not...

Anachronism,man,you must be a mind reader! I just ordered another mould,today. My only problem is, i bought a new set with my order last week! I have 4 sets,now.
The new ones are unopened and i don't need them,but it cost too much to send them back?

I would not worry too much about that, it will not be long before you find another mold for it. Molds are just like guns, just when you say this is the last one I am buying, another one comes home with you.
