I used Gussy's thick sprue plates last night for the first time. Boy they sure are an improvement over the standard Lyman/RCBS sprue plate.
Once I got the mould up to temperature cast up a run of perfect bullets like I never have before. My guess is the thicker sprue plate stayed hot and prevented rounded bases and othe base voids I usually encounter.
The “cutter” is to behold also. I never saw cut-offs like that before. No sprue bump or anything. They were FLAT!!
Also I had no base “finning” like I see when using issue sprue plates. My guess is Gussy had the plate trued.
Perfect bullet bases...just like I like to see.
For the price he's charging per sprue plate I would think most users of 2 cavity Lyman moulds should swap out their sprue plates and try his version
