I'm looking at getting a new magma star but I'm not sure what all I need and what everything will cost. I cast many sizes for myself and a friend and want to size fast and easy.
Lube-Sizer $250
Heater base $105 (needed?)
Bullet feeder conversion $27.50 (how much is the feeder? How many conversions will I need?)
Air feed for lube (worth $100?)
Shovel handle (worth $26.50?)
Dies $40 (Will I need one for each bullet or just each diameter?)
For starters I want to make .309 rifle bullets and 356, 358, 365, 401, 429 and 452 pistol bullets. Sounds like a big bite to chew but I do already cast most of these and either lee-size or shoot as-cast.
Does the star work with hard homemade lube or does it need commercial MFG sticks with the hole in the middle?
