no prollem. Lee molds for .575 and .44, for my .58 cabellas hawken and my .44 revolvers. both are double cavity molds which are nice. lee ingot molds and a 20 pound lee electric bottom pour furnace, which is really nice. i made up some rbs tonight. the .44s came out nice, but the .58s im haveing problems with . they aint comeing out perfectly round, they kinda have wrinkles in them. not really sure whats up with that. i still have some stuff to learn i guess, but i have plenty of time for that. actually have some really nice lead from the scrap yard, it was in a big rolled up sheet, and its softer than the hornady rbs i have. having a blast with this stuff so far, cant wait to try it again. :D oh also got a little cast iron pot and the little dipper so i can make them over a campfire to.
Grunt:
Open a window get some cross ventilation in. Lead fumes are not good.
