I got my new Pro pot. I used to have one years ago and used it up. This new one seems to be better built than my first one. Good job Lee.
New pot, Lee Pro 4-20

I still need to point the pin on my new one, the on/off flow you get with the torpedo-shaped pintle they've always had is frustrating. Other than that it's a fine little unit with many good improvements over the old wooden-handled ones. I also have a mind to put a wooden knob on it and re-thread the metal one to go on top of the pintle for direct down-weight and easy adjustment without fiddling with a screwdriver.

That's a good idea Ian.

A few years ago, I ordered the 20 pounder's upgrade kit and like it. I double nutted the rod, thinking it'd be easier to adjust by hand, rather than with a screwdriver, but manipulating it with a gloved hand wasn't. It may be that the nuts weren't too big enough to grasp effectively.

If you take the time to lap the rod and seat together you will see a huge improvement in function.

So far all I have done is put 10lbs of PB in it in ingots and melted them, I gotta find my molds. I'm out of projectiles for my .45 Colt.
