:lool: I watched the first one and thought "wheres the vid of the molds being used?" and then there was you next post :)

Nice job! The Lee definately is the winner.

I like Lee molds. I have several and in general they work quite well for me. I use the dipper method though and go a bit slower - usually using two molds and rotating back and forth - this seems to time things just right.

the review made them sound close, the video made them look miles apart. nice job.

teh only casting ive ever done was 50 cal round balls for muzzleloading. use a lee for that, works great.

Good video but I dont use any of them.....IMO if you want a good mold ...NEI (http://www.neihandtools.com/index.html) is who makes my molds... If I can find original Hensley and Gibbs at fun shows I pick them up but I dont care for any of the molds being produced today .....Here is a list of H&G mold that NEI will reproduce for you .... http://hgmould.gunloads.com/casting/hgmoldchart.htm

for just blasting ammo the lee molds do great. if im going to do something for steel silhouette i use lyman molds.
