Did not have a lot of time, shot only at 5 and 10 yards. I coach a Hunter Safety team and had to wait until after practice and then my wife had to shoot her new M&P9c. The pic is from 10 Yds. with 6.2 gr. of green dot and 430-TL-240gr boolits. I can't wait to shoot some of my own cast boolits. I think there is a curing time for cast boolits. How long do I have to wait to size, lube and shoot water dropped boolits?

Long enough for them to dry.

Water dropped grow harder over the course of about a week I think.... I personally think water dropping is over rated. A soft, properly sized boolit, with the right lube, will do just fine. Ask anyone here that's shot any of them.
