Ok, good. A cross between a pellet & a slug. nice. V.nice.

I watched the vid and I am not convinced about one thing. He says that impurities in scrap lead will float to the top and so not enter the mould. From the method he is using, then I don't think this is correct. I know impurities do float, but that is when the lead is evenly heated in a pot or similar. If you are melting the scrap lead direct over the aperture, then the heating will not be even throughout the lead and some impurites may drip inside while other bits of lead are still partially solid. also there will not have been enough time for the impurities to rise evenly to the surface. Normally impurities would have to be skimmed from the molten top. If you used new clean lead or new pellets to melt down, then this will not likely be a problem.

Nice item & I wish him well with it. Bit pricey, I can buy the same sort of thing out of a catalogue for a firearm calibre for less nicker. Anyway, nice to see cottage industries springing up.

Also, I can't see the point in the nose mounted ball bearing? :-) Any info anyone??
