I cast bullets for just short of thirty years. Whether it saved any money is a subject of debate, but I enjoyed it as another aspect of our sport.
Free time is more important to me now than a few bucks. I was a very picky bullet caster, and my rejection level of culls was very high. But that's what I wanted, and I enjoyed reloading perfect bullets.
I always kept safety in mind. I can think of only one time where a friend and I cast inside, in his basement. All other times I cast outside, usually on sweltering hot days because the bullets seemed to turn out better.
I consider casting akin to developing your own film. It's not really needed, just another facet.
