I am automating a master caster and have been studying sizer designs for push thru PC bullets. Your die holder was great to see as it is what I have been thinking about. the following you tube video...

There are lots of converted molds out there. Wondering what experience people have had as to how they hold up.

Wondering how well Lyman, RCBS and Saeco molds converted by Magma to run on their machine hold up long term? It would be an automated MasterCaster for my use.

KAL tool and die use 1018 cold rolled steel. http://kal.castpics.net/Molds3.html. A training FabLab in Tulsa has a hourly program that you can rent their equipment. Looking at making the blanks...

Plate Plinker expressed my thoughts that a no lube groove bullet might drop easier from the mold. Making 800 an hour, the less potential issues the better. the bullet would look more like an...

Not sure if this was a mold or powder coat question. Looking at ordering a mold from New West (or ?? suggestions) for light to medium 38 spec practice loads. Running the mold on a newly purchased...

Thanks for all the input. As I age, my reaction times are not as good as 40 years ago. Last casting session had more under/over pours than I wanted. I just received a small relay timer block off of...

Picked up a Master Caster and 24 sets of molds came with the machine, only one was a Magma. The Modern-Bond mold that was included is the first of these I have owned, maybe ever seen. B-358-742...

In the distant past, I would cast several bullets from unknown lead alloy and then compare the weight of the bullet to the same mold poured in pure lead and #2 alloy. It was a decent way to...

Connected with Magma on Wednesday. Great guys to talk to. They are currently working on new source for sprue plates. Old cost that they made was $14. Expect new cost to go up a bit. Hardware kit,...

I have an agreement to purchase a Magma Master Caster and will pick it up mid to late February. Over a dozen molds are included but none are setup for the MC. I have a few RCBS and Lyman dual cavity...

Big shout out of thanks to Hootmix for letting me come by twice to take dimensions off his Master Caster. I have about 50% of it modeled in TinkerCad. And then a Master Caster showed up on a for...

Talked to Master this last week, first week of December. Current price is $1,100 no molds. They do not have the heating elements for the melter, probably be February 2024 b4 they are available. Price...

We take I-22 sometimes. will get back with you if closer options don't come up. Sending PM

Price and wait list are beyond my current limits for a new Magma Master Caster. wanting to get eyes and hands on one to see actual dimensions and operation. Live in Tulsa area. There is one in SE...

Would really like to see a master caster or similar in operation. anyone in the NE Okla or OKC area have one that I could watch a casting session? Would driver further if needed.

I am wondering if the case is fire formed with light loads. My thought is to reduce the diameter down to so point above where the powder level would be. Some where above the top of the case head....
