Thanks Wayne, very helpful! As a novice casting BPCR bullets, my challenge continues to be getting the mold hot enough, and never thought of a hot plate.

Excellent article, especially,"some top shooters have suggested that +/- 0.5grs is necessary..."
With certified alloys or weighed mixtures of lead to tin and ladle pouring the alloys, the above is what can be achieved in 45 caliber, 530 gr. loads.
