The RCBS Pro-Melt-2 furnace is a lead bullet casting setup built for reloaders who want to control their ammunition from raw material to finished round. If you're casting your own projectiles, this 120V electric furnace handles the heat and consistency so you can focus on quality and volume. The 25-lb. capacity means you can keep a steady supply of molten lead ready without constant refills, letting you cast hundreds of bullets in a productive session.
Temperature control is where the Pro-Melt-2 earns its place on the reloading bench. A programmable digital readout lets you dial in and hold the exact heat your alloy and molds demand—no guesswork, no burned-out batches. The bottom-pour design channels molten lead cleanly into your molds, reducing spills and waste while keeping the casting process safer and more efficient than top-pouring into a ladle.
The included pot cover adds a practical safety layer, containing heat and reducing airborne particulates during longer casting sessions. For anyone serious about bullet casting as part of their reloading workflow—whether you're stretching a budget, experimenting with alloy blends, or just want the independence of making your own—the Pro-Melt-2 is the kind of tool that pays for itself in consistency and peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 25-lb. capacity mean for my casting sessions?
The 25-lb. capacity holds enough molten lead to cast hundreds of bullets in one sitting without needing to reheat and refill. Actual casting volume depends on bullet weight and alloy, but the larger pot reduces downtime and keeps your workflow uninterrupted.
How does the digital temperature control improve my casting?
The programmable digital readout lets you set and maintain a precise temperature for your specific alloy and mold combination. Consistent heat produces consistent castings—less lead spit, cleaner bullets, and fewer rejects.
Is the Pro-Melt-2 safe for a home reloading workshop?
The bottom-pour design keeps molten lead contained and controlled, and the included pot cover helps contain heat and particulates. As with all lead casting, proper ventilation and personal protective equipment are essential—follow all RCBS safety guidelines and local regulations for lead handling.
Does this furnace work on standard US household power?
Yes, the Pro-Melt-2 is rated for 120VAC and is designed for US and Canadian electrical systems. Plug it into a standard outlet in your reloading space.
