How much are most people casting into 1 pound ingots during a casting session? I did about 8 pounds of used wheel weights and my back and legs are killing me. I am using a propane burner from a turkey fryer which is on the ground. Instead of me picking up the large cast iron pot with hot lead in it can I use a laddle to pour it into my ingot molds? Eventhough I have a few aches and pains this is almost as fun as reloading and shooting. Thanks for any advice.
