  • Lyman ladel

    Compared to the Lee Dipper, night and day. Can poor way more without stopping to clean, its easier to hit the fill hole, less sprue run off and easy to clean. When u parafin your lead, put the parafin in the ladel instead. Let it melt in the ladel and swish it around, then pour the melted parafin on top the lead and dip the ladel a few times..it'll clean right up, then skim your lead.

  • Worth the Money

    Very nice ladle. better than the spoon type. I have a bottom pour pot, but it's still nice to use a ladle for small bullets. This is well worth the money.

  • Very easy to use

    Works really well. It uses a nozzle for a precision pour so there are no spills. The wood handle insulates the heat from your hand. Just don't drop it when it has the lead.

  • Perfect Factory Quality Bullets!

    Had been casting big heavy bullets with a bottom spout pot and not having much success. The heating element wouldn't keep the lead temperature up and the spout would clog. Since purchasing this product I dip and cast straight from a large cast iron melting pot to produce some of the prettiest bullets I've ever cast. The spout allows for a precision pour into the mold and holds enough lead to cast two 500 gr. 45-70 bullets with each pass. It pours hot and direct with a quick fill of the mold. Casting bullets is once again an enjoyable past time instead of a frustrating ordeal. Highly recommended effective and simple way to cast perfect bullets.

  • Makes it easy!

    It's left or right handed, well made and designed to pour as described. I only wish I had bought it 40 yrs. ago. Get one and be happy.

  • Lyman Lead Dipper

    This is a nice lead dipper with the option for either right or left handed people. The wood handle is a little small for my liking and the rivet that holds the handle onto the stem had sharp edges that needed to be filed smooth. I prefer the handle on my RCBS lead dipper but I prefer the dipper itself on the Lyman. All in all a good dipper.

  • bullet casting dipperbullet

    I purchased this because us left handed bullet casters struggle with some of the other styles. This works great and is of good quality. My sons will be able to use this someday.

  • Excellent and the standard

    This is the standard for lead casting. I have been using one exactly like this for years,with no issues. Bought this second as a gift for a friend

  • Lead dipper

    The tool did exactly what it was designed to do for my application (slugging barrels and chambers). But I had to be doubly aware of where the spigot was when melting slugging metal. If I did not, holding the cup in a natural position placed the spigot low and metal flows out on the floor.

  • I like it

    Works just fine. Great for skimming the slag from the top of the pot. Well made and sturdy. Very nice for poring small molds up to about 4 oz which is about as much I do.
