I'm at my wits end with my casting. I have been doing really well with my casting, no issues to deal with till now. I have a BACO Creedmoor mould that cast excellent boolits till now. Also a new BACO Money boolit. No matter how hot the melt or mould 700-800, the bases don't fill out and are wrinkled. Melt is 20-1 clean alloy from rotometals, I've fluxed and fluxed and fluxed, cleaned and cleaned and cleaned the moulds, pot ladle. I changed out the alloy and still am having the problem. I preheat the moulds on a hot plate. I gave up after two hours yesterday and two hours today. When the pot cooled it looked like the desert after a rain and it has all dried up and had holes and fissures running through it, not the smooth surface I've always gotten. I decided to move on to another pot and a lyman 44 mould and an rcbs 357 mould. I had problems there too. I was casting along happy to finally get something for my efforts and all of a sudden one of the cavities in the rcbs mould the bases wouldn't fill out either. Front cavity made beautiful bullets as usual as well as the back one then all of a sudden the back one wouldn't fill out to save my butt. I'm doing everything like I always do the only variable is the Money bullet and I can't see that being the problem. The only thing I can think of is I accidently touched the ladle to a towel not made of cotton and some of it melted on it so naturally I cleaned it real well even sanding it as it left some residue on it that took some elbow grease. Could it have been the culprit? By the way I only ladle the big bullets from one pot and bottom pour the rest from another pot. Hope I gave enough info. Thanks
