Casting?
 

We just moved last year and I finally need to make some more bullets,BUT I can't find my ladle,can you pour with anything else like a spoon.Any suggestions?

Never mind,I just broke down and ordered one.I'll just have to wait.

Deerman,

Yes, I suppose you could use a spoon, but a ladel is safer and holds more lead.

Unless you were to find a way to put a wooden handle on it, I would imagine it would get quite hot to handle, even with gloves on.

Back to the saga of the ladel.You can make a ladel out of a stainless steel two tablespoon coffe dipper.Just add a wooden handle and it works great.Then get all set up for casting,open your camp stove and FIND your old ladel!!!This was my first time casting since we moved,I remember I put it where I'd never forget where it was.The coffee dipper did work.

Deerman,

We all like a story with a happy ending. Another point: I am done moving! I finally have all my stuff in one location and I know where everything is located.

Be safe casting.

In turth tho if you pour the larger conicals the dipper really worked a lot better.Of coarse why wife just had to give me that "wife "look!SHE would have looked there first!
