I've cast my own for about 52 years and still learning. I started with pistol bullets and then had a yearning to shoot some in my rifle, a 99G .300. A friend had a single cavity Lyman 311466 mold and let me borrow it so I cast up a lot. They shot so good that I used it to kill a couple of bucks that fall and I was hooked forever. I tell those who ask me at the range about casting that a fellow could buy one mold and could probably never explore all the possibilities with it. Try it, I highly recommend it. wink
