Casting round balls
« on: June 21, 2004, 01:08:15 PM »
Just finished up casting a few dozen .457 round balls for the first time. If I had known how easy it was, I would have been doing it years ago. Managed to pick up several hundred pounds of pure lead used to line the back of drywall in a radiology building. Got myself a LEE mold and went from there. 8)

Sounds like me with re-loading, if I'd known it was this easy I'd been doing it years ago!

Just a question, but the balls don't glow in the dark do they? :eek:

Well, now.....

If your balls glow in the dark, I'd say that you had more pressing problems than cap 'n ball reloading!
