I cast my second batch of minnies today with my Lyman 575213OS. I've never ladle poured before, other than to cast a very few and decide I like bottom pour better, but today I thought I'd give it another shot. After only a few, I had the hang of it and found that I had a lot less rejects due to voids at the core pin. Well, after casting 100-150 or so, I shut down the furnace and weighed my bullets. These things weighed 10 grains more than the first batch I did a couple of weeks ago. Exact same alloy. Pure lead from Rotometals. Same temperature. 800F on my PID. They are suppose to weigh 460 grains, but the first ones ranged something like 492-496. These today were 503-507. When weighing these, I had maybe 15 that were in the 198 gr range, then a big jump to the 503-507 range. I suspect that the few light ones were a few that I had bottom poured today. Couldn't prove it, but I suspect it. What the heck is going on? Were the ones I thought were good the other day full of voids? They shot OK.
