Lee 20 Pound Pot dimension help

[Scar270]

Hi, does anyone out there have one of lee's pro 20 pots? I have read that it's 4" diameter pot, but I'm wondering how much room from the back of the pot, to the valve stem.

My ingots are oversized, and I can't really get them into my 10 pound pots because of the valve stem running accross the middle, so was thinking about upgrading pots, but I'd like to be certain my ingots will fit in the pot ok.

"...can't really get them into my 10 pound pots..." Cut the ingots in half.

LOL, sorry, I should have been more descriptive, they are about 3 feet long and a little over 2 inches x 2 inches. Splitting them into shorter pieces is already a heck of a chore with an axe, they are nice old hard wheel weights, so I'm trying to avoid having to try and cut them into smaller slices, partly cuz I'm not accurate enough with an axe to do that.

Back of the pot to the bracket that holds the valve is 74mm on my Pro 4-20.

Thank you very much, thats what I was looking for.

Use a carbide bladed circular saw to cut your 3 foot ingots in to 2"X4" you will be fine.

Thanks for the advice, but I was kinda looking for an excuse to buy a 20 pound pot for a while anyway.
