    That's what I use. Bigger for purer lead and the 1/2 for harder lead like wheel weights. That way I don't confuse which is which.

    I use an old cast iron cornbread pan. The pie wedge type. Triangles.

    I have a Lyman and a Saeco. Always work well for me. The aluminum cools faster when doing lots of them.

    I use a non-stick mini-muffin pan. Ingots just fall out of the pan and very easy to load into my 10 lb. Lee pot.

    Cast Iron Muffin tins here as well. I also use old cast iron pans to preheat a lot of my larger chunks of lead before I refine it down to ingots.
