Cast my first batch of boolits after receiving my equipment a few days ago, everything went as well as expected except that the scew that holds the sprue plate backed out of the Lee double cavity C309-170F mold midstream causing a minor hiccup but overall I am fairly happy with the results and can only see them getting better as I put more time in ... thanks to you all for the tons and tons of information I've been reading here on the boards over the last few months.

That pesky screw is always backing out on my Lee's. Keep a screw driver handy. A set screw would make those Lee moulds perfect in my eyes.

Nice first batch.
