It seems that a 2 pellet stack yields superior patterns compared to a 3 pellet stack. Also, #0 Buckshot lends itself to that in a wider variety of wads, rather than #00 (.310" vs .330"). So in view of these factors I'm considering buying one of these moulds from Track of the Wolf.

I have a Lee 6 cavity mould for a PB Lyman 311041 from a Group Buy several years ago. Casting with that mould I know you have to be humping right along to keep the mould up to temperature and that mould is taking 3-1/2 times the lead per pour than this buckshot mould will take. My question to those who use this mould is, how difficult is it to keep the mould hot and running right? Or, should I consider the 18 cavity #00 mould and settle for whatever wads will work with it? Smooth casting ability is a big plus as I'm a grumpy old codger, I appreciate your input.
