For the most part i am a Lyman Mold fan, but when it comes to their Roundball Molds i am NOT, and this is why. I go RCBS for my Roundball Molds, They cast a REALLY nice Ball 
Lyman leaves the Top of their Mold Blocks “Proud” It’s to bad They don’t mill the Top of their blocks down until the top of the Roundball cavity is a “Knife edge” But FACT is they Don’t, as you can see here in this pic i red Arrowed
The results are NASTY Sprue Nubs, to me this is unacceptable, I don’t like this at all. I sent a Brand new Lyman .530 to a friend of mine to Mill the Top of the Blocks down for me to correct this problem, I need to get it out and Cast with it. Again, RCBS Roundball Molds are my “GO TO” They address this
