Busy,
Lee Precision is the manufacturer of low cost bullet molds, case, cartridge, and bullet sizing dies, sizing presses, and the famous "Lee Loader" cartridge reloading kits. They have a wide variety of bullet molds for BP guns, round ball, conical and mini-ball, many of the conical bullet molds for standard caliber smokeless pistols and rifles can be matched up to BP calibers, since they generally offer a variety of precision diameters for each mold offered. Their molds, with handles, generally sell for around $21.00 to $26.00 each, most are double molds, some are offered as a 6 cavity mold, for a bit more, around $62.00 for the 6 cavities. Both Dixie and cabella's offers a variety, but not all of, the molds offered by Lee Precision. The website for Lee Precision is,

The following pic, is one of their specialty molds, it's a buck-shot mold that casts 18, 00 sized, approximately 30 Cal, round balls from a single mold, and costs $62.00. It does not come standard with the handles, but the LEE standard handles are only $3.00 or $4.00 each, so that's no biggie. (The smaller 2 cavity molds all come WITH the handles.) I know you have shown alot of interest in shot loads, well, no shot loader is complete without a buckshot mold !!! LOL !!!
Have FUN with it !!!
