jigmaster Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Hey, all Anyone have experience with this type of pour system? Any feedback is appreciated. Regards JM www.daimonlures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RufNec Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 After pouring for 10 years with Lee pots, we went to a RCBS in the last month. I feel really stupid for not doing it years ago! Less problems with leakage, the Lead stays at a consistent temp, and the flow is ealy to control. This all adds up to about a 30% increase in production for us. I would recommend it to anyone tha feel they can afford it. RufNec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlaery Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 We started out with Lee Pots then switched to RCBS. They are the Cadillac, but they still leak eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reeves Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 Jigmaster, anyone considering any type of production, can't afford not to have an RCBS system. You will experience leakage from time to time and it will sometimes become frustrating, but it seems to cure itself after several pours. I have found that keeping the temp set between 750 - 800 has worked the best for me. I have two of these PRO MELT pots, one for very soft lead and the other for the harder lead used in sinkers and larger body lures. Also, I might recommend rigging up a simple stove hood exhaust directly above the pot to eliminate the lead dust. Good luck, I am sure you will enjoy the use of this pot.

WidowMaker Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 When i purchased my first RCBS i was looking throught the box and noticed the warranty card was missing. I called the company and was surprised to find out there was no warranty card because it had a LIFE TIME WARRANTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
