Yes, I inspect my new molds for this now when I get them and make sure they are staked in good to start with.

You must have got the mold that I recently sent back. :) Send the mold back for a replacement. I have a lot of the two cavity Lee molds and recently got my first bad one. Exactly as you...

I use the 284 brass and have had 0 problems.

Generally the reason for this is you can obtain higher welding amps with 220 vs. 110 with less problems. As stated already when it comes to 220 vs. 110 power is power, as an example if you wanted to...
This is true. I do not open my sprue very much and it helps. Best cure for me has been to gently tap the mold halves when closing the mold, works every time. Never thought of laying the mold on...
I get this sometimes with my Lee two cavity molds. It has nothing to do with lube per say. The two halves are just not aligning perfectly when closing for whatever reason. I never have this...

I totally agree that the Redding dies or any other possible dies that are made specifically for the K31 are best. I just don't want someone totally new to reloading for the K31 to think or to be led...

For the record I have the Lee dies and use the .284 brass and I have not experienced any trouble with either. As far as the brass is concerned I have not lost one piece of brass yet because of using...

I have thought that myself about a lot of things. Many times I have wondered if the person that says this or that won't work has actually tried it themselves. I could name several topics right off...
Your ymmv but I shoot cast boolits from my G26 and G37 with the stock barrels and have had neither a leading problem or brass problem.

I have a Marlin 1894 44 mag and a Ruger SBH 44 mag and for the most part get better accuracy when using the Lee 310 gr. boolits.

You can find a lot of info in the "Wheelguns, Pistols and Handcannons" section also.

Got a chance to shoot my Puma 454 briefly today. It was cold and windy. Only shot from 25 yards but I am pleased. Group was very good, 5 shots from 25 yards. I personally don't consider 25 yards...

I have a recently purchased New Puma .454 that I will do a accuracy and function review on as soon as the weather permits. I can only say at this point I have found nothing negative to say about the...
I have never had to clean any of my molds after the first initial cleaning. I must be lazy too, but everyone says don't fix what ain't broke.
Only thing I do is use boiling water and dish detergent. I use an old tooth brush and scrub the mold cavities several times and then put mold into service. Don't have any idea why any one would...
[smilie=1: No lead build up in my G26 yet. My new G37 showed no lead build up at all first time out. YMMV
Forum: Cast Boolits
In the past I tried anti-seize, the high temp stuff and for me anyway it just seemed to make a mess of my mold. Got my new mold yesterday and scrubbed it 3 times with dish washing liquid and boiling...

I have the 405 gr. mold and it shoots very well in my 45/70. I prefer the 340 gr. though but both shoot well. Yes you can size a .459 boolit to .457.

I know you posted you wanted adjustable sights but I have a RR with the fixed sights and it shoots fine for me. I did have to bend the front sight very slightly as it was shooting to the left a...

Lee two cavity molds are all I have, around 17 or so now. Got a new one on the way right now. I do not lube my Lee molds anymore. Have not had one single problem because of no lube. I don't even...
