I put the 2 fire bricks in the bottom of the oven to act as a heat sink. Seems to help with heat loss. Temperature still drops from 200deg to about 175 when a new tray of boolits is put in but...

Just a question for Ausglock and Hitek. Are you selling the smaller sizes in Aus? I would like to get some to NZ to try.

Thanks for all your replies. I do prefer cast iron over aluminium so I may go with the Lee press and either the Lee breech lock or the LnL system.

Forum: Single Shot Guns
That's a nice looking gun. Wish mine had the set triggers.
Thanks Guys for your thoughts.
