Casting pots Lyman vs RCBS

[# 566]

 A while back there was a disuussion on the pro's & con's of  RCBS & Lyman bottom pour pots.
Does anyone remember this ? and could  you provide a link to that discussion, A friend is considering upgrading from a Lee 20 # to either a Lyman or RCBS and I told him I'ld see you'll had to say.

Thank you

ive owned them both and now own two rcbs pots. Its hard to explain it in words but the rcbs just seems to work smoother. Rcbs also has much better warantee and costomer service. Ive had both of my lymans back for rebuilds and lyman charges a 100 bucks rcbs will do it for nothing and ill gurantee you one thing. Use a pot long enough and it will fail. Good thing is both of these pots are hands down better then a lee.

I have never owned either the Lyman or RCBS bottom pour pots. Been fooling with the Lee for years. After every casting session I swear I am going to up grade to the RCBS.
I have done a lot of research on both, and as said both are a lot better than the Lee. But the RCBS always comes out as a better pot in the reviews, I have read.

I hand ladle from a Waage. I've been thinking about getting a bottom pour, and I think I'll save up for the RCBS

My Lyman Mag 20 has gone through a lot of heating elements in it's life. I average replacing one every couple of years. At $25.00/ea, it's something to consider. Fortunately, the Service Dept at Lyman will still sell them to me without my having to send them the pot for installation.
