I've tried to put on weight unsuccessfully, so I'm starting to eat cast bullets throughout the day. It's working, I'm gaining weight!! Will doing this elevate my lead levels in my blood? :razz:

I know in the western movies they say "eat lead" but I don't think that's what they meant hehe

This will give you an opportunity to test a new fluxing technique, it may work. I sincerly hope you are pulling our legs. But if you aren't I am not sure it will be to big of a loss.

Wonder how that'd work for flux.

Or maybe they'll come out like a lubrisizer. The lube grooves filled and ready to go.

And when they come out, don't forget to use a micrometer, rather than a caliper to measure the diameter so you know what sizing die to get. Once you know this, and order the appropriate sizing die, and install it suppository style, you'll be able to pop them out lubed, & sized! :bigsmyl2:

This soooo reminds me of the old Looney Toone and WB cartoons of the 50's and 60's.
Oh, and BTW, eat the zink weights when you cule them out of your stash. Why waste the lead.

You win the Most Meaningless Post Award on Cast Boolits. Congratulations for having nothing better to say

PS: The word is 'raises' blood levels

Beagle, Passing 22's would probably be a breeze, but can't help but think that a 58 Mini, or a 550 gr. 458, or a 170 gr. Cruse Miss would be a real problem. Particularly if they came down horizontaly!

You're doing it wrong, Fatelvis. The routine goes like this: Swig of cold beer, then out of the mould and down the hatch to quench. Follow with a pea-sized bit of lube for a chaser, repeat until full. After your casting session, sit on your sizing bucket with proper orifice installed per MikeS's instructions. Sizing bucket is a 5-gallon bucket with toilet seat attachment such as sold by hunting supply warehouses. Be sure to have some good reading material handy, you might be there for a while. If you prefer a beer that gives you gas, you might need a sandbag in the bottom of the bucket to prevent damage to the bottom of the bucket or the floor.
