Abstract: A hand-held casting device for molding a hollow pointed, grooved, and twice throughbored bullet including a pair of handles, a pair of jaws, a mold, a pin, and a bracket. The mold includes first and second halves and two rods passing at different elevations and orthogonally into the mold for providing the two throughbores in the bullet. The length of the bracket is such that upon opening the mold, the pin moves in contact with the mold first half until such time as the bracket contacts the mold second half forcing the pin to leave the mold first half and move towards the mold second half until such time as the bracket contacts the mold first half causing the mold to no longer be able to separate and positioning the pin equidistantly between the mold first and second halves.
