I've got here a Lee Precision .451" round ball mold, good for .44" revolvers or for patched .50" rifles
This mold has six cavities, allowing you to cast more shot, faster! I've used it once, when I realized it was the wrong caliber for my pistol.
This is an aluminum mold, so you have to keep your lead HOT when you cast.
Selling shipped with handles for $75, w/o handles for $60.

What would you use for a patch for the .50 cal? A catcher's mitt??

Thanks for the productive reply.
A thick leather patch would work (and historically accurate). And you'd be amazed how much tighter a barrel gets after a few shots.
You could also probably get away with lubing the ball and loading it in a slightly smaller caliber rifle.

Obviously this caliber ball is designed for .44 revolvers. I'm saying it could be possible to use it for other things.
