I heard the 30 30 was used take bear 🐻 but it was type writer lead hard they but a x on tip be interesting if you cast some but finding the letters is another task
The Saeco is very finicky about needing tin to fill the mold out-but it makes identical bullets to one another The Lyman molds are great and cast well with wheel weight lead Overall, the Lee molds offer a great bargain and heat up quick and are easy to maintain Question is what your looking for exactly. High volume(multiple cavities-up to 6 with Lee), precision Saeco, just ask yourself how many and what type of bullet. The selection is ridiculous Lee, Saeco, Lyman, RCBS, NOE, Accurate, Mihec, H and G, Ideal
Funny you should mention wheel weights. It’s all I had in the past. I made cast for 38 special back then. I’m looking to get back into this only because of the cost of 450 bushmaster. I looking to get the raw mixtures from www.rotometals.com now. Thank you for the response.
Figured out the bullet discoloration and blemish
The distance from the spout to the mold was too excessive causing air deformities
Great video sharing. First time I saw this kind of video. It is new to me. Stay safe friend.
Nice casting man, I agree if they aren't what you're looking for just recast them. Don't cost anything but a few more seconds to cast them again. 👍👍
Nice mold guide setup .
Homemade
Happy to see your activities in this video

How is the saeco vs Lyman? I’ve mostly used Lyman in the past

Deus Vult, brother.
His will be done. Amen
It looks like you have a lot of slag in your pot that needs to be removed.
Called "dross"
Yep
The oxide protect the surface of the lead.
In a bottom pour pot is not a problem
Turn your pot down your far too hot🇬🇧🏴🇺🇸🇮🇱👍
I cast very little with this pot. I use an old Lyman bottom pour for most of my work. It is PID driven.
