The Lyman Mag 25 Furnace is a capable 850-watt electric casting pot built for reloaders who cast their own bullets. With a 25-pound lead capacity and digital temperature control, this furnace handles the core work of melting and pouring consistent lead for casting. It's designed as a practical workhorse for handloaders who want to control their bullet supply without fuss—whether you're loading pistol, rifle, or shotgun ammunition.
Central to its design is the separate digital display system that shows both your target temperature and the actual lead temperature in real time, letting you dial in conditions before you pour. The 850-watt heating element does the heavy lifting to bring lead up to casting temperature, and the warming shelf gives you a place to preheat mould blocks before you start casting. The bottom pour valve keeps things simple and reliable—a proven method for controlling pour flow without complexity.
The universal mould guide accepts most standard moulds from Lyman, RCBS, Redding, and Saeco (note: it is not compatible with Lee 6-cavity moulds). Built-in storage keeps your casting accessories organized and within reach. If you're already invested in reloading and want to complete the cycle by casting your own lead bullets, the Mag 25 gives you the control and capacity to do it efficiently.
