Starting to get the hang of it.
There is just something special about casting your own.
Played around with the temp today, while waiting for my temp gage to arrive.
I'm getting a "feel" for the right temp for good rounds.
Going to load these with 25-27gr of Varget. Hope to find a load soon.
It already likes my small game load.

BULLETS
Good looking bullets. I do not know what it is, but it is alot more fun when you shoot a deer with a bullet that you made. I would not worry about a penetration test, just shoot your deer and go pick it up. Tom.

Re: BULLETS
I've not doubt they will work. I'm just doing the test for my own amusment. I think they will out penatrate most of the others.HEAD0001 wrote:Good looking bullets.

WEIGHT
Did you weigh them. I do. I normally cull about 1/5 of my bullet's because of weight differences. But you can drop them right back into the pot. An electronic scale comes in handy. Tom.
