Received my brand spankin new Lee 20# pot and started casting. So smooth. Casted about 50 RBs.  Takes a little longer to get to temp to cast consistent weights. But 48 out of 50 dropped with +/- .5 grains. Nice!

Looking at eBay, it appears that the old DuPont cans really demand a premium.
The newer GOEX cans are anywhere from 6.95 to 20.00 or so.  Plus postage.
Maybe I am going to have to dig out what's left of my collection.

Thanks John,
 I'll have to look into cans collectability (sp?)
