My casting days are over!

[desert deuce]

Imagine, a 14 year old at a remote canyon range, shooting at steel targets with a .38 Special lever action Rifle and two .38 special single actions standing ankle deep in once fired commercial brass.

That same year he discovers Shiloh Sharps Rifles and Black Powder Cartridge Rifle Competition.

And you are telling me you have four of these critters?

Well, you need to start thinking about buying scrap lead by the ton and tin by the 50 Kilogram ingot while you shop for a bulk melting pot that will handle over 100 pounds of molten lead at a time. (five full loads in a pro-melt= 100 lbs.)

Be aware that primers come 5,000 to a sleeve and black powder is available in bulk.

Next will be home concocted bullet lube, think minimum 2 pounds at a mix and you will be on your way.

Wad punches, wad material comes in sheets 3' x 12', and keeps one busy keeping up with the loading volume.

Yes, you are going to have a ball.

With any luck that ton of scrap lead will last four years and by then the lead expenders will begin, with the oldest, moving on to other pursuits.
