I smelted the lead nearly three years ago. I chose 4:1 COWW to SOWW because that's about the ratio of what I have stored away. After this batch of lead was smelted I moved from a muffin pan to an iron corn-shaped cornbread pan and combined the COWW and SOWW. I'll probably keep them separated from now on.

Here are the first two "bullets" from a brand new mold at the hand of a brand new caster.

The pot was set to pour way too fast at first so lead would go all over the sprue plate without filling the mold. The lead wasn't yet hot enough.

Progress left to right as the mold hot broken in and I got more comfortable.

Got everything adjusted to yield some OK bullets. Then I started moving consistently quicker and started getting frosty.....all because I was working faster I guess. Ended up turning the pot down from 9 to 4 when I got quick.

Then finally I got a big pile (378) after throwing back a bunch of frosties that likely could have been used.
