Contact Dale, aka -"dsparkie" here on the forum. He's a boolit caster and has made some for me.

I've cast bullets for years, I used to hand cast all my bullets but now have a Master Caster with .45 200 grn SWC , .40 175 grn SWC, and a 9mm 125 grn RN molds for it. Those handle most of my needs but I sill have 2 cavity molds for other calibers I shoot. My lube sizing is done on a Magma Star sizer.

I don't shoot near as much as I used too.

I've been shooting bullets I cast for years.

I cast bullets for:

9mm
38/357
.45 acp
.45 Colt
.44 spl/mag/AMP
.41 mag

Never had a problem casting or shooting my bullets.

I use gas checks on 357 and 44 mag

I started casting over 30 years ago to save money on jacketed bullets. I started with a cast iron pot on a gas burner in the garage. Later i found it was great because I had more options on the loads I could create and just plain enjoyed making one more component of the process mine. I have never had any kind of problem with reloading cast bullets, pistol or rifle. Get a good pot, thermometer, a molds and you're on your way.
