Nice to see some diehards as well....

I've cast bullets and have handloaded since I was 11yoa, and I'm now 48 and still going strong.
I cast for everything I shoot in handguns, as well as some rifle use.
Probably everything from 9mm rounds all the way up past .45LC bullets and such.
Over the long years of doing such, I've collected hundreds of moulds, and obsolete ones to boot.
I don't dip anymore, but that was the way I started. Right now I have three bottom pour pots and a ventillation system set up that I built when I designed my shop. It serves me real well.

I haven't bought jacket pistol bullets in years, and when I need some, I make them myself with jackets & core lead from C-H.
Not to blow my own horn, but I've made jacketed bullets that shot better than most factory ones.....not intentionally, they just did at a great surprise.

Happy casting...............


Bob
