I have had a Ruger OA for some time, but shoot mostly the projo from the LEE mould cast at 456, I think the mould design was made for this pistol specifically. Although many call it a 44, it shoots 45's. I recently picked up a Remington 1858 New Army in 44. It is truly 44, cylinder mics at .443. I have the casting bug, and a gazzillion ingots of WW, so would like to cast for it. My problems is my perceived pickiness if the looks of balls from the LEE mould that I do have in .31. Does anyone cast with a LYMAN or other brand and what do you think of the ball quality? I have read on this forum of the weakness of the plunger arm on the '58, so will doubtful shoot any conicals. I know, balls ain't that 'spensive, but like they say, staying busy casting keeps me out of the titty bars and such. Just a hobby.
