Well today i cast , lubed /sized 2,000 cast bullets . I still had some time to kill so i did something i allways wondered about ! how many bullets have i cast in 40 years ?
I currently have 24 moulds , out of those, I only kept track of the bullets made from 8 moulds , from those 8, ive made 234,112 bullets . not counting what i made on the others 16 moulds , + the 8 moulds i sold and a few that i borrowed .
I may already be ? or possibley soon to join the 1/2 million club !

Beats what I did today to beat boredom. (vacuumed and shampoo'ed carpets)...
That is a heck of a lot of boolits. Since you have cast so many, which molds are holding up the best for you?

I have mostley saeco moulds , about 6 rcbs and 2 mountian moulds , 1 lbt and 1 lyman .
Of the 8 i kept track of 5 were 8 cavity saeco moulds the other 3 were 4 cavity saecos .
Heres the tally 48,404 , 48,271 , 41,552 , 29,613 , 27,306 , 19,137 , 12,100, 7,000.
all moulds cast and work as good as new.
Im lucky in a way ! im almost not allowed to clean anything in the house , my wife is a clean freak !
she even has 2 clothes baskets one for dirty clothes and another one for the clean clothes after comeing out of the clothes dryer and dont put that basket on the carpet up stairs they wll have to be washed again. Other than that shes a good wife !
