Is it stamped BW Darr and is it a re-cut Lyman mould or other.

John - nothing other than 379300 on the mold. When I bought the mold it was advertised as a Saeco-Darr on the ASSRA For Sale

I have a tiny bit to add here.  One of my molds pictured is a Saeco-Darr mold as labeled.  When I found the second one pictured - once upon a time I posted a question here or one of the other forums and Mr. Darr responded that there was a good chance that mold was one of his... it's a .376 diameter and works well in a couple different rifles I've tried.   
Thanks Scott for posting that catalog, an interesting piece of history.

That is Barry's stamp and usually found on the side of the block. Appears to have 7 or 8 lube grooves and probably custom made to fit someone's personal needs.
