buckshot molds

[rancher1913]

track of the wolf just got a shipment of lee buckshot molds in.

I've got one of those - I sometimes just try to get about 4 or 5 drops after casting a bunch of boolits. Each drop is 18 pellets so it adds up quick.

I prefer the old Skyways, or whatever they were called. They are now being made by Martys Arms. They drop 20 at a time, and used to be available in just about any size. I have them in F, 4, 3, 1.5, 1, 0, and 00. The down sides are that they are now super expensive, and they eat up a lot of lead with the sprues. I will generally cast an entire pot, let it cool, then trim the sprues back into the pot and go again. They have the advantage over the Lee molds in both variety, and the fact that they only have one sprue mark per pellet.

Thanks for the heads up on Martys Arms.

A buddy of mine has been wanting a #1 and single aught buckshot mold for a long time.
