    June 2020, Photo Contest, SPECIAL EDITION: Revelation Events

    Well, we are in the midst of a virus pandemic and now just recently an incident in my home State has triggered a worldwide civil unrest/rioting. WHAT'S NEXT? I'm not too sharp on my knowledge of the book of Revelation. Maybe some 200 lb hailstones? Maybe the Yellowstone Caldera will let 'er loose in a fantastic Supervolcano eruption? No doubt something else majestic will happen, so I am again, setting aside the normal topic selection process, to open it up to any casting/reloading/shooting things that you are doing during this time of seemingly Tribulation. No older photos rehashed, please. Only new photos of what you are doing during these times.
    ================================================== =======================

    I don’t know if I’m ready for anything. But I’m sort of prepared. No clue what bullets are in the pics. But I do know they are all sized, lubed and ready to load or already loaded. And the ingots may be an old pic but I have enough cores sitting in my garage to make a pile about three times that size. I’d feel a lot better if everything was loaded.

    My master caster can run for hours and days and almost anyone can pull a lever properly with minimum training with a result of thousands and thousands of cast being produced. Best purchase of all of my reloading equipment.

    Question re the Master Casters:

    1. Do they use only 2-cavity mold blocks?
    2. In a 2-cavity block, where does the pour go, exactly - directly into one cavity and then overflow into the other?

    Andy. When you setup your mold either single or double you also set up which orifice you use to match the mold cavities. The orifices also come in single or double holes. The pour goes directly into the cavities.

    Ahhh, I see - thank you for clearing that up. I'm pondering buying one and I couldn't seem to find how they work - thanks!
