Hi all - strange request here. My parents and aunt are asking what to get me for my birthday, and I'd like to ask for casting stuff. I've got about a ton of WWs and a couple hundred pounds of ingots that I've smelted as well as Miha's brand-spankin' new .45 HP mold. I don't have anything to size or lube though, or really anything else for the actual casting besides the mold itself and a Lee Pro 4-20.
So, could anybody suggest what would be a good thing to ask for in the $50-$100 range? I'll shortly be doing my research here to figure out exactly what else I'll need, but would love your help in the short term. So far in reloading/casting/life I've tried to buy quality so things will last without being extravagant. I'm also willing to put a little extra effort in to save some money. I don't expect to shoot much more than 500-1000 boolits a month since I only plan to start casting for two calibers, and I enjoy shooting suppressed and want to keep lead out of my cans as much as possible.
Many thanks!
