With all due respect, you might have a mold problem (a big problem)! To keep this particular "hobby" going must keep you on the look out for lead too.

If that .38 is a #51 It is worth what you paid for all 4 but you will have forearms like Popeye from using those Jumbo sized molds. You will also have to have quite a pile of lead to keep them busy. Bullets will rain from them..............

After I paid for them I would have been squealing like a little girl!

Some guys have all the luck. Last gunshow I went to all I saw were $150 bricks of primers and $100 pounds of powder

The #290 looks like a good design as well. You did make a fine score.......
