I've been looking hi and lo for a #1 buck mold similar to the Lee 00 buck mold that will make a bunch at a time. I've tried using a Lee .31 ball mold but after four or five hours of casting 2 at a time, you have enough buckshot to make maybe ONE whole box of shells. This doesn't work for me. Cranking out 6 to 12 at a time would be much better. Do any of the custom builders offer ball molds in .30 cal ? Anyone out there making something that will cast in quantity so I can work up some 12 ga loads without spending weeks just making the raw materials ?
I found one thread indicating someone was preparing to make custom molds for round ball but the thread seems to have died before it got far enough to be of help to me. If I've missed other relevant threads, please point me in the right direction.
Thanks for the help.
