    Lyman Mag 25

    I broke down and bought a new pot, a Lyman Mag 25. Of course the mold guide does not fit any of the molds I use and was wondering before I reinvent the wheel what others have done that are in the same situation.

    Easiest solution is to just flip the guide over. Or turn it into a dedicated ladle casting pot.

    I just took the guide off and work without it.
    dannyd, where did you get that adjustable platform ?

    I got the platform off Amazon. You can adjust it up and down. It's a good pot casted about 20,000 bullets with it so far.

    +1 on this... it was brought up in a different thread and I grabbed one soon after and have used it with my Lee #20. Definitely nice to have to "tune" a pour drop height.
