    Why didn’t you order handles from MP? They have one of the best deals on nice handles, especially if you are already paying shipping for a mold. Are they out of stock?

    The mini lathe forging may come from the same foundry, but different companies machine and assemble them. That’s where the quality control and prices come in.

    I always diluted by eye. Probably around fifty percent mineral spirits. I would lube the boolits, let them dry overnight, add gas checks while sizing and lube once again. Maybe I didn’t need to, but...

    I remember those. My grandmother had a couple. It’s right that you don’t see them around much anymore. They should be a good source of lead, if the price is right.

    The NOE sizing setup is great, especially if you will be sizing different calibers. Initial cost may be more, but cheaper in the long run.
