These machines provide hands free casting without gloves. Cylce rate for a 2 cavity 44 caibler mould will be every 20 to 30 seconds depending on bullet weight. Magma claims 15 seconds with a 2 cavity 38 caliber 158 grain mould.
The time you spend waiting to cylce the handle can be spent inspecting bullets or using a hand mould under another pot.
The machines are long lasting and mostly trouble free.
