    I hit the Hensley and Gibbs Jackpot!

    Hello All,
    I hit the jackpot at a local gun show today! I got these 4 Hensley & Gibbs molds with handles for 40 dollars a piece! Thanks for looking and any comments. {NFS} Boats

    I will take the third one down for $100 shipped. The person that owned them is probably turning over.

    They appear to be in great shape! Hardly used.
    Due to the price of primers, warning shots will no longer be given!

    You'll prolly have to run them at an angle under a bottom pour Lee and them buggers are heavy, heavy, heavy but us men don't complain about that!

    Absolutely a great find...be prepared though....Ole'St.Peter is going to bring this theft up when you try to get in the pearly Gates!

    A Rowel bottom-pour ladle is your friend for filling these up.

    Bottom pour with some sort of support or you will get unhappy in short time but you flat stole them so put up with a little pain.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    For those prices, the seller has to be a dumb, blind non caster that cleaned out his grandpa’s reloading room after the ladies in the family screamed ... Get that stuff out of here
