I used to run thru one pot, about 25 pounds in a session, rarely ever did more. Now I honestly don't think I could cast bullets. My left arm is pretty much useless to me. I need a full shoulder replacement but have decided to live with the pain and not have the surgery.

Even an empty coffee cup is more weight than I can handle with left hand. I can't imagine I could hold the molds full of lead.

No more than I shoot I have about 3 life times of loaded ammo now and all the components needed to load another life time or two worth should I ever run out.
