Hello Pards:
Got up at 4:30 am while it was a little cooler ,marched over to the shop filled my Lee pro 4-20 with lead, smoked my molds and put them on the hotplate , used the Lee 45acp TL230gr TC first then the Lee 9mm TL124gr TC, after a while I started filling one while the spure was cooling I would fill the other set it down for the spure to cool pick up the first one cut the spure and dump the bullets ( water quench) it kept me busy and steady the way I like to be anyway I learned alot, I know more about what you guys are talking about now But don't get me wrong it wasn"t all roses either LOL but thats another story
I had way more Good than Bad, 45 acp sized .452 9mm sized .357.5 I was pleased most all the 45acp looked Great and weight was about 239gr the 45 mold likes me the 9mm mold don't going to have to find the sweet spot with it 50/50 good & Bad bullets from this mold also having problem with the front pin (6 cav mold ) sticking and not wanting to close all the way together any sugestions
