I was piddling around last night in the garage and fired up the pot to cast a few before heading back into the house. I forgot the mold number, which really doesn't matter, its a single cavity .38 125 RN mould. About a dozen or so bullets in when knocking off the sprue I heard I abnormal tink in the pan. After knocking out the bullet the issue was quite evident that the sprue plate stop pin had fallen out.
I did a search here and came across a few posts but they mostly dealt with aluminum molds.
My initial thought is to peen the end or middle of the pin to get a better fiction fit.
Thoughts and recommendations?
