Mr. 16 gauge,
The short answer is: RUST! Leaving a final bullet in an iron mould DOES not do a good thing for the mould. I never leave a bullet in any of my 45+ moulds. I remove the handles and place the moulds in a 3-pound coffee can. I spray Rust Prevent onto the moulds and snap on the lid. When I go to cast, I drop the mould into a can of boiling soapy water to degrease it and warm it up.
Lee moulds are aluminum and rust is not a problem. I do not like the "chinsy" Lee moulds. They work after a fashion, but I prefer iron Lyman moulds.
