I own one nose-pour mould, a Hoch 22 cal 60 grainer. I hadn't used it in many years and couldn't think why not, other than it is a single-cavity mould and my back doesn't like casting for more than about an hour so I have this strong bias toward multi-cavity moulds. Kinda' nasty weather in these parts, time on my hands so thought "why not?". And they pour pretty nice, though it takes a tap or two to get them out of the mould so production is slower than it would be with a mould that just drops 'em. About 200 per my almost an hour of casting.
As I looked at all those absolutely perfect bases produced by this little nose-pour baby I got to wondering why we don't make all moulds as nose-pour. So why don't we?
