Oh the horror!..... Pressure casting with a Lyman ladle. Man I haven’t done that in 40+ years.

I’ve pressure cast with both 10 and 20 pound pots and haven’t had any problems. Granted it depends on how hot your melt is and what your alloy is, but a little experimenting and you can sure beat the hell out of using a ladle.
Fine for you, but I can't see the spout on the lee pro 20. I'd have to have it above eye level so I could get the bifocals on it. Not about to do it by feel!! If lee would just make the spout a little longer, us blind old folks could use it to pressure cast just fine!

Get used to doing it with a ladle, it goes pretty fast.
