A ring molded article manufacturing method capable of reliably and efficiently producing a ring molded article in which dead metal regions are reduced, is provided. In the present invention, a material is processed by first forging so as to be shaped in a shape including a bottom which is formed in a substantially disk shape, and a peripheral wall which is inclined to a direction from a center of the bottom toward an outer periphery thereof, in a direction from the outer periphery of the bottom toward one side in a direction of a center axis of the bottom, the bottom of a first forged article obtained by the first forging is drilled, a drilled article obtained by the drilling is ring-rolled, a ring material obtained by the ring rolling is placed inside two molds, the ring material is then processed by second forging so as to be pressed by the two molds in a direction of a center axis of the ring material, and the ring molded article is thus produced.
