Did a little casting today

[GOPHER SLAYER]

Here I am turning lead biscuits it something more usable. I am filling an RCBS double cavity 400 grain mold, 165 grain Lyman 311291 and a Hoch 165 grain nose pour.

awesome Gopher.. i am glad somebody in CA is still pouring with all that is going on!!!

[Winger Ed.]

You'll put your eye out kid.
Ya need to send those over to one of us.:bigsmyl2:

This bottom pour is an older Lyman. I have two of them plus two dippers, a Lyman 20 pounder and a SAECO. Marko, when it comes to casting I can't hold a candle to Buckshot. When he gets started he may go on for days. His shelves are filled with containers of cast bullets.

I love those old Lyman/Ideal single cavity molds. They are slow, but they just work.

I like them too Wanye, I especially like the 311249. I had five of them but I can only find two. Maybe I sold the other three. Who knows where I put stuff?

Nice boolits hope they let you shoot them in a lead free state!

[Gtrubicon]

Oh boy, we cast and shoot a lot of lead in this lead free state, in my little town the post office complains about my lead purchases to my wife, they tell her that there are a lot of people buying lead in Ca

It looks like you had an enjoyable and productive day. I just love seeing "vintage" tools still being used!
