Lyman just callled, the pots are in stock.

That's interesting. They didn't change the web site, still says available late 2014.

UPDATE: Just called customer sales and service..... lady said it was still in the testing stage.

Midway site says . . . Coming soon
Brownells says . . . Pre- order

If they are finally coming out it will be interesting to get some feed back on them.

China can't get QC under control. It's a slow boat from China.

Just talked to their customer service as well, i have mine on its way. The lady said I'm getting one of their first batches that are available. no sure why they would give two different answers.

'Not saying that you are wrong... just saying what I was told. I called 1800 225 9626

Seems odd they give out two stories, guess i'll wait and see. it's not like i havent waited long enough allready.

Where you on a waiting list? Only thing I can think of is that they got some in and are trying to take care of the list first.

I was on a list, i ordered the pot when they first came available on their site.

I'm interested in your review.

I'm interested to see how long it lasts and how they've managed to keep the PID cool.

I Drooled, I waited. 2 years ago I bought a ProMelt and it is a awesome.
Want to thank Lyman for helping me make the right decision

After the service (appalling) from Lyman I received seeking a new element for my Mag 20 I got the Pro-Melt. I have nothing but praise for all things RCBS especially their service. I would not touch anything Lyman again.

Just in time for Christmas... My list includes a lead smelting setup, a lead casting setup and a Charge Master scale.

[Smoke4320]

I too look forward to reports from users about the longevity of the PID and the valve (no leaks)

[GLL]

Please post many photos of your new pot (from a variety of angles) with your impressions !

I just received a back order email from Midsouth on the Lyman Mag. 25 pot. I was hesitant to ok the b.o. since I am putting a PID together however I decided to give it a try. After all, can one have too many casting pots? I'll post some pics and my evaluation when it gets here.

[dragon813gt]

I'm wanting to see the parts list for it. Wondering how easy things will be to replace. Because you are going to get no support from Lyman.

[Master_Mechanic]

My pot showed up yesterday. I havent had a chance to fire it up, but it looks well built. Built in fan, pid, warming plate the whole 9 yards. They included a note that says they have melted roughly 4lbs of alloy in my pot prior to shipping as part of their extensive testing process (there is residue of alloy left in the pot.) going to fire it up tonight, will report back

Obviously, this pot just cannot work and being Lyman is an invention of Satan hisself.
Or maybe wait and see?
