I have been reading everything I can regarding my "new" Spencer carbine by Armi Sport. The rifle came with 3 boxes of Buffalo Arms ammo that I intend to dispatch today at the range. After that, the handloading will begin!
I have purchased some Montana Precision bullets for my first go-round, but plan to begin casting my own for it in the near future. I have read about lots of folks using the Lyman 515139 old as well as NEI and older Rapine molds. Modified Lee 515-500 molds also seem to be pretty popular.
And then I found that Lodgewood has a .515-360 "custom" Lee mold for sale at a pretty reasonable price. Seems like just the thing. But I haven't found much said about using it! My search only found a couple of threads about these. There must be more shooters using this mold, unless it is a bad design or something.

PS--I have already "bothered" Dakota Widowmaker about modifying a Lee mold for me and he is game, but doesn't have any stock on hand. I will likely go that way if the Lodgewood mold is a bust.
Thanks!
