I finally got the chance to cast a few with my new Mihec H&G #68 HP mold yesterday. Other than the fact it is so heavy it is an absolute joy to use. Once it came up to temp the boolets just fell out when I turned the mold over. I can't wait to see how these shoot.

I didn't make too many because I really needed to crank out some 30 cal for my new 300 Blackout barrel. Here's a canful of NOE 311407's I poured yesterday as well:

It was nice to fire up the melter and make some boolets again. There are the first fresh ones I've made in over a year.
