Hi,New Guy:
Here's a lot of good advice than got posted about the time I started casting this summer.

</a> Add about 2% tin to your wheel weight melt when you start. One mould casts OK without it, but another needs everything just right (lead temperature, time between casts and the phase of the moon) before I can get good bullets without tin in the mix. There's no use making it hard for yourself at the beginning.
Bye
Jack
