Sorry for the less than stellar pics, but I think you can see the two groups I sorted out. None of the casts are great, but the better ones aren't too bad, I think. The bad ones have wrinkles. From my searching I don't think I want to go higher temps so I'm not sure what my next step is.
I have been away from casting for several months. I am using a 2 cavity lee mold TL358-158-SWC. In the past I've used 6 cavity molds for my 45, and 40 and it seemed a little more user friendly.
I am having fill out problems, but it seemed to get better when I used a higher heat. My thermometer is staying between 700 and 800. Very few of the casts are falling freely from the mold. I have to give the casts a good push with a screwdriver on the base to release the casts.
I'm wondering if I should add a little bit of tin to help with the fill out, or let my mold get hotter. I'm not sure of why I'm getting a shiny finish.
My pot is the lee 4-20, and the lead is range lead.
