Casting and reloading for 50 years
I have sold many thousands of lead melting pots, lead smelters, bullet molds and lubricators.
The best molds ever made are from the founding California Saeco company made of Meehanite cast iron that does not deform at bulletcasting temperatures like steel and aluminum does. The Ca-Saeco company made Premium quality molds that made bullets to "Win in Competition" their motto. I have 20 H&G molds in my collection from 6 to 10 cavities and used them for years. They only create practice quality bullets. I have had two bulletmaster machines each with Ca-Saeco 2 cavity molds turning out 4,800 cast bullets per hour for me and sold 39 machines.
The best ever bullet lubricator is the San Diego made Star luber that with my innovative idea of nose first sizing can lube bevel base bullets in a fourth of the time of any other luber. My invention of bevel base bullets at the Ca-Saeco company required less case mouth belling of cartridge case mouths and worked well in progressive and automated reloaders and cut case replacement costs from case mouth splitting.
I am selling off some of my collection of bulletcasting tools new in the box from the 1970's and your asking for my sales list will gain you the secret formula of Ca-Saeco Green lube containing automotive STP which reduces bullet resistance in the bore, needing less powder for the FPS and reducing the number of bullet lube grooves needed in the design of Ca-Saeco bullets creating a bigger driving band surface to grip the rifling.
Any tire shop reusing tire weights are ripping their customers off as reused weight steel clips do not hold on the tire rim as solidly and are thrown off nullifying the cost of balancing the tires.
Ask for tire weights for fishing sinkers as nowadays no one need know that you own any guns especially minimum wage tire mounting employees. Only a burglar need know that you are prepared to defend your home and family.
The most accurate bullets come from molds with a maximum of 4 cavities where the sprue swings from the middle of the sprue block. Sprues that swing from the end of a block or the hinge create bullets of increasing weights the further they are away from the hinge.
H&G design molds still exist as they were bought by Netherlands Ballisti-Cast company with a second factory in the USA. 10 cavity molds are no longer made.
Back in the 1940's Ca saeco determined that the best molds could be no larger than 4 cavities. Last year subsequent company Redding Saeco made larger cavity molds to make more money but when the inherent inaccuracy of the bullets produced were discovered by the customers they discontinued the excess cavitity molds and sold off their remaining inventory to some unsuspecting customers that believed in the Saeco name.
In buying bulletcasting and reloading tools the old adage applies of "You Get What You Pay For"

Enclosed is an attachment showing the darker color patterned gunstock quality walnut grips and the boxes that Ca-Saeco molds with handles were sold in in case you see one in an old timers reloading room or at auction. Being of lifetime Meehanite cast iron they will last for generations.
