I'm in the beginnings of my research to start casting. I've been reading what I can here about furnaces and casting. My reason for getting into casting will be to make big 500+gr long range bullets for my Sharps. Based on my reading I understand that the best way to cast big bullets is with a ladle.
Everything I've read says that the RCBS furnace is about the best out there, but it's set up as a bottom pour, which I probably wont want to use for my bullets. Is there a better option for ladle pours or does the RCBS work well with a ladle too? I don't want to say "price is no object", but I also understand "buy once, cry once" too. Temperature stability and durability are more important to me than price.
