I had some points on my Cabela's card, plus it was on sale as well as my coupon for free shipping. I could have drove there in 45 min or so one way but would have spent more $$$ once at the candy store......So I dropped a little $$$ and it is on it's way here.
{the above was for those that will say just get the lee}
Up till now I was casting with the free little lyman 8# dipper pot that came with the 4500 sizer.
So any hints for the use of the bottom pour? Or hints in general as to what temp setting, ect
I need more lead now :groner:

I don`t even start to mess with the alloy until it`s 700f , then I can warm molds faster then adjust down .

Start with a lesser flow then adjust up as needed.

The fuller it is the faster that silver stream comes out !!!!
