Default RE: Help getting started casting bullets

ORIGINAL: andrewjoseph

If I become good at casting, will it be possible to make bullets as good as the professionals like Bull Shop or No Excuses?

You guys that do cast bullets, do you still buy conical bullets from other people?
The only thing I cast for now is my .45 Colt. I cast 2 diferent sizes and just ordered a 3rd mold for that along with a roundball mold and a Lee minie for the .50.
Daves absolutely correct when he said that you can cast as good as the pros. But to do that, you have to have the right equipment. Pricier mollds than I own and a better casting setup, maybe a pot with a bottom pour.
