    I have been an avid participant in a lot of the group buys of "custom" molds organized here. Many have never seen lead, and there are several that have identical twins next to them in the storage containers. I remember wanting several of the old Ideal/Cramer/H&G molds when I was younger, but they were made of unobtanium. We are living in a golden age for bullet casters, with more "custom" (meaning the size you want them to actually drop) than I have ever seen. I'll keep buying molds and hope a child or grandchild gets the obsession. I like Ramen noodles!

    With that many moulds, how, and where, do you store them?

    I think I had about 100, but that was after a big auction score and I rehomed many here, cheap, to get them to someone who could use them. Now, l am looking for a 6.5 in the 140 gs range.

    Got any?

    I'm starting to match molds to specific firearms. Once you get an accurate clean load for a particular gun it's kind of settled. I probably will sell some molds I don't use even if I take a bit of a beating on them. My shooting is just target and plinking work so that simplifies it too. I've got some powder I won't be using as well.

    GONRA wonders - when ya bore another mould cavity in the bottom of an
    existing set of Lyman / Ideal mould blocks, make other necessary modifications,
    does that now count as 2 moulds? A PROFOUND ISSUE HERE!

    Martin Luber;
    I use plastic Stanley Sortmaster boxes I bought from Lowe's. Model number is 14026, but I don't know if they are still available. I need to buy a couple more.....
