Mike, that's why I suggested 'go cheap'. Some fellers don't like casting. It's time consuming, and when you really get into it, consumes resources which could otherwise be used to just buy the danged boolits to begin with. It's not for everyone, for sure. But then again, with free lead it doesn't take long for a mould to pay for itself many times over. Just gotta stand there and do it.

There are some applications for which I cast that I would probably not even be able to buy the boolits the way I want them or even at all. In that respect, it certainly is worth it. The ultimate in 'custom casting' (and 'hand loading') is doing it yourself for something you can't get anywhere else -- and making it work.

Funny, I'd much rather cast my boolits than buy'em.... Just pullin' yer chain, Mike. If you can't have fun with it, it ain't worth doin'. I guess it doesn't make much difference how you get them, as long as you have a good time shootin' them!
