You basically go to our store and buy your name. in the info section after you click on your name will have your order details. dont wory about paying till i get them done. so lets get this party started.
If your on the fence about shooting #1 buckshot read this article its really great http://www.frfrogspad.com/shotgun.htm
Molds are made from 7075-T6 aluminum and use lee 6cav handles. This is an 18cav mold that casts #1 buckshot.
you will notice that there are little casting hairs from the vent lines, there is so much pressure in the mold that you get those. but thy come right off.
I clipped the balls off and tossed them in a pop bottle and tumbled them around for a few min by hand and poof gone.
I did 22 casts and it took me less then 3 min, That's 396 balls. That's over 100 balls a min.
I just cut them off and it worked slick. This is how I cast my buckshot from now on.
