Recently bought a bunch of molds and handles from a Buckskinner's relative. Was offered a .457 round ball mold for nothing as they said it was broken. I took a look at it and noticed that there was an old cast, still inside and the sprue, had not been cut. I then explained that it was not broken and would gladly pay for it, as well. Bought an additional four and found that two more were left this way as well. .....
I have been casting for a number of years and have never left a cast this way, nor heard of anyone else doing so. My question is; how common is this practice and to what end? I know that the previous owner, knew his stuff, just not sure whay he did this. .. ... .
Be Safe !!!
