I just cast up 100+ .530 round balls with a lee 2 cavity mould, I found one of my chambers is in need of some shaping some bastard edges formed under the spire plate and some crud in the cavity. I guess you can take a sharp knife and flick the metal flake out of there. and wash out the crud. This is like the 4th time I have cast with the mould so I figure it needs some bugs worked out. I also used my tanner mould for the second time .590 for a smoothbore. I am figuring out its idiosyncricies. I had less culls from the tanner mould but have to cut the spire. I think I perfer the single cavity moulds.
