    high prices

    All too true I've found that it is often easyer, faster and (occation) cheaper to order spareparts for my pedersoli at Totw, in stead of the local gun-dealer, even though that means shipping the stuff twice over the atlantic :youcrazy:

    Casting questions

    it has allready been said, but it's worth saying again: beware the leadfumes. even though i've only been casting 8-10 times, and allways outdoors, a recent blood testing revealed a leadlevel 4 times normal. so if you're doing it indoors, get an exhaustfan and if you're doing it outdoors, check...
