An excellent book for new or old casters.

It is full of information and even tells how to cast bullets from Zinc.

The Art of Bullet Casting is excellent. So is the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook, and the NRA Cast Bullets book if you can find it.

Running searchs here and copy and paste then putting it in a thumb drive or printing will serve you almost as well. Spend a day on searchs and see what you can find. Gianni

Hi,
Best book on smelting and alloying I have found is "The Handbook of Commercial Bullet Casting" by Paul Moore. Published by Magma Engineering (makers of Magma casters and Star sizers).
Good Luck
Bruce

The Lyman Cast Bullet Hanbook is great. The LASC site has a ton of good info on all aspects of alloys. http://www.lasc.us/CastBulletNotes.htm
