    Attachment 221892Well it's been about 3 weeks or so in now. Got the Lee 4-20 and bottom pour some and ladle some. Don't like my mold so ordered a NOE mold. Got to get a lube sizer yet. Don't care for the messy Alox lube. Cast these with 2 different Lee molds last Saturday and about a 100 yesterday. Really enjoying it. Glad I went with the 20 lb as even it runs through lead pretty quick with a 255 grain bullet. Got Rcbs thermometer and a hot plate. Found 50 lbs of lead on here and have another 50 lbs on its way. Anxious to get the Noe mold. Bought a sizing die and lubed up a bunch. Really enjoying the hobby. Almost as good as reloading.

    Trying to see expansion on these but 2 soaked Atlanta phone books and about 1/2 piece of wood is still letting them go all the way through.
