Drifting? Us? Okay, let's help ole JR out a little. He said his Dad dropped off a bunch of WW's. Well, JR, go over to your Dad's and impose on some of his stuff until you get yours up and running. Cast some for him for using his stuff.

My first mould was a Lee SC 148 WC, and the guy that got me started had a Lyman 358311. We cast boolits on his wife's stove in the kitchen, vent fan running, load on the kitchen table (she really loved that) and we'd shoot at lunch time on the indoor range at the Air Force Academy (both stationed there). Clean the traps and cast more. That was a very long time ago. Even then we did it on the cheap. Scrounged .38 casings from the range, cheapest primers we could find in Colorado Springs, and the was free lead. A pound of Bullseye was about three or four bucks. Point is we got to shoot. Alot. So, it all depends on your personal situation. Make sure though that if you're gonna cast to take proper safety precautions.

Hey Mike, how about this? Not shooting is gonna get really old, really fast. Who cares where the boolits come from? sundog
