Mike, Thank you....

I have tried a fan (it shortens the cool down time nicely) and I got into a "patten" of touching the mold base to a damp sponge and holding it there for a few seconds after a few casts..that also helps. However I have many dozens of bullet molds...never had one like the 452460 and I tried two different ones. I have had others that had the same problem and the steel wool plug/spin trick fixed it....I had a Saeco 8mm mold that had drop out issues...this method fixed it. I've had many dozen of Lee molds..never had a hang up issue with any of them. Lots of folks bash Lee molds...IMHO they are a wonderful bargain. I fiund I prefer a DC Lee mold to any DC iron mold...as they are so much more "comfortable" to cast with IMHO.
