Got my Jeff Tanner mould today. Great piece of work. He even engraved my name on it. Verry nice guy to deal with.

Did your mold come with handles? I need a .570 mold and Lee does not carry one. how will you cut the sprue? I like the looks of Jeff's molds...Thanks...Dan

Hi. No there was no handles included, but Lee should fit he said. He sells handles that fit. But i have a old Lee 308 cal mold that is wear out,so i take the handles. Must say, realy a pice of art.Made of brass. to cut the sprue, he sold me a special grinded plier.Looking forward to start cast. But its so darn cold, and i use to be outside when casting. Tommy.

Hi Dneper 750
I have one in .465 and it is very easy to use i use a cable cutter to cut away the spru.

Hi Mathias. What handle do you use?

 

[Grizzled Roberts]

I use the Lee 90005 commercial mold handles which I got from Log Cabin Shop for $15:50 last year at Friendship. I've been using Jeff's molds for around 6 years and these Lee handles work better
than any other brand I've used with Tanner Molds.
I shoot a lot and average casting 30 pounds worth of round balls each year. I will be shoot more big bores this year so that might go up! I've already had to make runs of .595 and .615 this year! .648 next week!

Will Lyman handles fit? I am going to order the .648 also.

With a little work, i guess most handles should work. This evening i took a 75 cal roundball mold i had and all i did was to drill two new holes in the arms of the handles to match the Tanner mold.
