RCBS Lead Thermometer

When casting lead bullets, best results are achieved when the lead or lead alloy is held to an optimum temperature for pouring.

Most budget lead pots do not offer accurate temperature controls, making an add-on like the RCBS Lead Thermometer a must-have for casters.

With a range of 1,000° F and an accuracy within +/- 1 percent, this probe ensures that casters can dial in their process and produce perfectly proportioned bullets. An adjustable handle is included with the probe.

MSRP is $61. For more information, visit rcbs.com.
