So I finally got around to trying a new Lee C309 180 mold I had ordered over a year ago. My Ruger American Compact just loves this boolit over 17 gr. of 2400. Got a 1/2" group at 50 yds. yesterday. This is just a 2 cavity mold and I thought I would pick up another so I could use two at a time. Well, that mold along with a lot of other Lee molds was out of stock everywhere I looked. That got me thinking of what it would be like if Lee went under. They make quite a few products for casters that no one else makes. Their Pro 4-20 pot for instance. Simple and affordable and something I would not want to do without. I did notice that the mold is still available on Lee's website. Going to order one today along with a spare 4-20 pot and some of their case forming lube.
I worry that the fallout from this Chicom virus pandemic could kill off some of our suppliers. What do you all think?
