I have a few old Ideal molds and they all seem to cast really good boolits. I'm wondering if I'm just lucky with the Ideal molds or do they just cast better? I bought this 2 cavity mold off eBay for $65.00 with free shipping and it was delivered this past Monday. Mold was in good condition with no rust or dings. So Wednesday I cast about half a pot of lead with the mold. Preheated on a hotplate and started casting and rejected a very few boolit. The results were exactly what I'd hoped for, they measured .382 & weighted 257.7 plus and minus a few tenths of grains and filled out excellent. Sized .380 and lubed them up today and loaded 30 test loads. I've been shooting the Lee 250 grain bullet in 3 of my 38-55's with good results. If the wind every stops gusting I will see if they shoot as good as they look. I would like to hear what results others have had with this mold. Thanks
