New Accurate Mold Arrived

I ladle out the remaining alloy, after casting, down to about an inch. About as much as I can get out using a #2 Rowell ladle. Not recommended to start heating process with an empty pot.

Much better.

Compare the bullets in the first picture to those in the second. Those in the first picture are very shiny and wrinkly, both of which are indicators of a cold mould. Those in the second picture aren't as shiny and appear to be wrinkle-free. I prefer bullets to have a matte appearance, achieved by a hotter mould. To each their own.
