Well you have a few days before it arrives…are you like a little kid before Christmas?  This will give you some time to pick out the mould that you will use to christen it with. I’m sure that it will be a memorable event. Take some pictures of the finished product and maybe even the rifle that will send those beauties downrange

It looks good as those Stephan pots do    Awesome. That ladle casting is own art which I can’t handle. Otherwise I would order same pot too. Well I keep casting by pulling handle.

It is all horses for courses, dipping or pouring isn’t an either or for me. Some moulds prefer dipping especially the larger ones.

This pot id nice and big so I can use my 2 lb Rowell with ease and it carries enough alloy to fill the cavities and keep the heat.

I have ladle cast since 1966 but have just recently purchased a RCBS pro-melt. It is definitely a different style of filling the mould. There are some new tricks to learn. My arms are not what they used to be and I have trouble holding a heavy ladle full of hot lead and figured it was easier to learn something new than spill it on the workbench or my feet. That looks like a well built, professional pot that should last a good many years and make bullets to be proud of.
