I went to a local shop today and found a basket of molds marked misc. I was able to pick up two lyman mold a lyman 311576 and a 311291 for 15 bucks each they look almost new or at least very well taken care of. Just thought I would share my find.

Well I couldn't wait to cast today. So as soon as my son went down for a nap i got everything heated up cleaned the molds and cast a few. The 311291 gave me some fits at first but hope its done now. After casting I noticed that it wasn't filling out well on the seam so I cleaned it again and just waiting for bedtime to cast again.
