I am looking for an inexpensive mold to cast light-load plinking slugs for a Ruger Blackhawk .41. Do any of you have any advice on whether or not the Lee .41 bullets are accurate?
I have had three Lee molds-- the 195 gr. HP was never very accurate- but I am not blamiong the mold just what I tred to do with the bullets it made-- I have a 210 TBL that shoots well and I had a 240 SWC that shot very well. accuracy is not just limited to the mold there is also the weapon the load etc-- A lee mold is well made -- the only cavet is the metal is a little soft that the mold is made of. but any mold needs to be taken care of.

I use the Lee 170-TL for CAS shooting in my Blackhawks at about 750fps. It shoots well in my revolvers and rifle. With the 210-TL I have to push better than 1000fps for good accuracy in revolvers. The Lee Tumble Lube bullets shoot better in my Marlin Micro-Groove barrel than any other cast bullet I've tried.
