It's not just lead have you seen the price of tin, also there is gas and electric, the real good moulds I buy I don't use the Lee rubbish
Not to forget my time, The cheapest .458" bullets I can find are Hornady 350 grain at $46.50 for a box of 50 and that is wholesale plus gst

Ive actually bought some projectiles from you, 8mm from memory, rifle long gone. I cast my own because of the volume I shoot, and I have a good system with a modified lees "furnace". and moulding table.
I have a Lyman sizer and luber. quite enjoy reloading BP
