The knowledge is free you just need to bring the container for it.

Knowledge is one of the few things that can be given away and kept at the same time.

Welcome. I would advise you to start a "Mould fund", to help buy all the moulds you didn't know you couldn't live without!!

I joined this site a year ago when I started casting bullets. It has been my most valuable resource and I am grateful to all here that have helped on my journey. Hope you enjoy your time here.

Guys, he's been 'casting and loading for a few years' - he's already hooked! This is where you come to get your addiction educated!

Welcome aboard, but you are already down the rabbit hole of casting.
One of the things I learned here is how much I didn't know about casting. I had to change some of the misconceptions I was taught by an old timer
in my youth. Sometime change is good.

Welcome aboard, part of the guidelines of being here is that you need to study, there will be a test on your 30th day and you will need to be able to recall without aid of refence any of the information from:

Learn something every time I come here (Every Day) Was sizing my 45 acp boolets to 451 And bumped to 452 as that was considered to be the optimal size by several other casters, The difference was amazing as far as accuracy, Go figure .001 would make that much difference! Welcome aboard!

That goes along with a "new gun fund" for the rifles that you bought a mold, before having anything to shoot it out of.

Welcome. If you add your location to your personal information, someone near by may offer to get together to help, if you need it.

Thanks guys! I do have a sizable mold inventory that I've collected through the years. It's about 167 molds though I would venture a pittance to what others have here. Mostly centered around 45-70, 40-65, 44-40, 38-55. 32-20, 45LC and a smorgsborg of 30 cal to 357 Mag molds. I shoot BP as well in C-Sharps/Shilohs so always looking for a new mold to play with.
