Casting a New LEE Mold
« on: November 30, 2021, 11:21:01 AM »
A LEE 452-230 TC. 45 caliber mold.

 LEE molds get MORE looking and tendin not less!
The spure plate gets removed and stoned. Holes checked and usually D&T for lock screws. But I generally wait to see how much Im gonna cast them before spending the time to do that.

This was was actually above average!!  Spure plate was flat and true. Blocks was nice and no burrs of inconsistencies.
