Ok, new to me at least.

I just recieved an RCBS 200 gr 35 cal 2 cav gas checked flat point.
It was in like new condition

I now know I can cast up a mess of bad bullets really fast! :drinks:

I need some practice on the two holers... as all I got (or most of em...) are one holers.

Of 128 bullets cast 28 were good. :( oh well, back into the pot!

but on the positive side, the 28 that were good, all wt the same! whaahoo! and they miked out of the mold at .360

They are the same length as my favorite 200 gr plain base bullet, and that's about it.

I was oogling over the 180's that were sent to me by another member here and I may have to look for that baby next!

Clean your new mould up good to degrease it, cast a little hotter than you do with a single cavity ( more mass to heat up, takes a bit longer) and you should start getting almost all good ones. RCBS makes a nice mould, it'll work once you get the hang of it.
