Decided to cast a few Boolits for my 357 Mag

[Down South]

I had a little spare time yesterday so I broke out some casting equipment.
I was running low on 357 Mag boolits so I cast a few. These MiHec moulds are works of art.

Oh, the mould is a MP 359-640.

I'll set up the lube sizer sometime today "Star" and break out a cold one.

Now that there is a pretty good mess of good looking boolits. I'll be doing the same thing in about an hour.....

Now they have to be sized, lubed loaded and fire. Look at the work you've now made for yourself.
Tell you what, send them to me and save yourself all that trouble. :bigsmyl2:

Shiloh, I really wish you had sent that message a few minutes earlier. I would have gladly shipped you all those Boolits just to keep myself from having to size and lube them. But as you can see below, I took on the dreadful task and did it myself.

Storage has become a no brianer. I use Zip Locks. If the weather is to warm and you worry about lube melting, just pop em in the Fridge or Freezer.

That's the same boolit I was casting today. Sure wish we could get a re-run with a 4-banger mold.

I don't see any gas checks.

Very nice!

Those are beauties!!
I like how you attached the lube sizer to the picnic table, excellent use of available resources. I assume there is a backer underneath the table that you run a long bolt through?

Great big flat washers. I use those same bolts to bolt down my Dillon with a C-clamp.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. That's a lot of work with a two banger.

Nice to that quantity of boolits on han and ready to go. Beauties!

That is a neat idea with the picnic table. You a can be outside enjoying the day. I'd need to move about 5 inches of snow first.

[Down South]

Yeah, the picnic table works well here in Houston. I had to make some of my casting and reloading equipment portable since I'm in Houston most of the time now. I have designated places to mount that equipment on the loading bench in my shop back in Louisiana.

I've got to pick up more supplies when I get back home around the end of the month. I ran out of lead on this casting session.

I'd need to move about 5 inches of snow first.

...and warm the outside up by 40 degrees to make things tolerable for me.
I cast in the garage.

Nice pile of boolits. Whats the boolit weight?

[41 mag fan]

You could send some warm weather up this way, so I could cast without freezing my buns to the chair
