1) I'm NOT building a 70 foot tall structure in my back yard so that I can pour lead to make shot.
2) Shot makers are very expensive, almost $400 for the cheapest ones. Have to do a LOT of shooting to justify it.
3) Maybe our own mac1911 would offer to start making shot for us....... hint hint (he has a great shot maker, and has been working it)
4) The Lee mold is so cheap to buy that it would make more sense for you to just get your own, and cast them yourself. The rest of the reloading of slugs is so convoluted that I don't want to be come the go-to=guy for reloading slugs. When would I ever have time to do my own reloading?
5) The nice thing about having more lead than I'd ever use is that I can sell it off (as ingots) to pay for my other reloading needs.
6) Yes, I may be crazy... what with 1400 pound lead keel, and 1200 pounds of linotype, back to back. BadLuther and I are starting to call it, "Lead Exposure Crazy"... LEC for short.
7) And, we can't seem to lick the LEC.
