Received my mold last Thursday, fired up the lead pot on the weekend.
Before the first use, I very lightly lube the sprue plate, the HP pin guides and the locating pins.
Thats all the prep I did.
Casted a few starter boolits to heat up the mold, and once the mold is fully heated up, the boolit results gets better and better.
After about 10 casts, the production begin, I casted about a hundred perfect boolits with very little effort.
The lead temperature is about 800F and the mix is my usual mix of range dug out at about 14 BHN.
Sorry no photos, my camera packed up.
Another set of GREAT mold from Miha, another satisfied buyer.
Thanks to 45 2.1 for honcho-ing and Miha for great job!
