Too cold to shoot time to cast!

So it was 22 degrees here in Ft. Worth yesterday so I went to the garage and churned out some roundballs for my Navy's!

You've been busy.

I made a cylinder loading press. I will be turning the loading tip to accommodate my 36 Navies and a tip for the 44's. Too bad we are separated or we could have some shared range time.

Cold here too, like 0.
I'd like to get into home bullet making for my cap&ball and other handguns. Is there the equipment readily available or has the supply dried like all other handloading stuff?

Most of the Lee molds are out of stock just about everywhere. The melting pots like in the OP's photo and other paraphernalia seem to be available at different places.

I am in frozen Central Texas with 3"+ of snow and ice on the ground. My shop is too cold to cast so i just make inane comments on forums.
However, when it warms up 30 degrees or so, I will be casting Eras Gone (shameless plug) bullets for my Smith carbine and some .451" 215 grain RNFP for an unmentionable hand gonne that is over 100 years old and still going.

last time I looked Track of the Wolf had ball of various calibers. I got some .451" to feed my .44 snubbies and they are really good quality well cast and priced right.
Equipment and moulds are in short supply..
Hang in there

I was looking for Lee Molds last night...there are none. I was just dumbfounded by that...
