No Lee .224 molds?

makes good bullets, but too light and not pointy enough to be appropriate for a semi-auto. if you are doing for a bolt gun, should be great. I am planning to mill mine out a bit for AR use
 
Sometimes Lee just doesn't make any sense with their designs, especially 45 and 9mm. They don't follow normal bullet profiles and I always end up having to load much shorter than I'd like.
 
I hear ya, I had very poor accuracy from the lee 9mm 356-120TC, but I switched to a 125357 mold and am having very good luck with it and you can load to a proper oal. but I am mostly extremely happy with all of their 358 molds in 3i8spl, and I am also having great reliability with their 230-309 in 300BLK. but I believe this bator mold is geared toward fast twist 22-250 or other bolt actions. to find a nice .225 mold, try going to saeco and seeing what a custom mold would run you, should be around 80$ for a 2 cav. also though, their regular 125gr round nose 9mm aint half bad either. just not the 120
