Since there are no special pins, simple shape, blanks ready...as far as I know it shouldn't take too long...

Today I tested my 50grs version, and I made test run with what I had in my furnace (pure with more then 5%tin).

I got 48.1grs beautiful cores and 0.2 grs max variation in weight. I swaged them as cast straight into jackets for a friend who competes in 3gun. He needs a lot of free 224" bullets and me skipping:
cutting the wire, swaging the core to desired weight, I already see how fast I am using cast cores.

Thank you MiHec for excellent product!

Luckey him.

I take it that the 55gr version casts a lighted core to make a 55gr total weight bullet.

55grs will cast 55 with pure.
I ordered 55 (standard) and 50 versions, 50 gave me 48grs with what I had in my furnace. Test run, 1st time. Consistency is excellent.

Finely got time to cast with the 8-cav 55gr core mold today. All's I can say is WOW!!!

The mold rained a pile beautiful cores in a hurry. They measured .186" using 20# of pure lead and 1oz of tin. I only weighed 20 random cores and the weight range was from 54.1gr to 54.5gr.

199227

It didn't take long, less than an hour to cast #12 of cores (1500 cores) with this 8-cavity mold. I simply cleaned the mold with dawn dish soap and pre-heated it and started casting. The mold cast excellent quality cores from the 1st pour & the cores fell right out of the mold.

Thank you Mihec
