    I've done it the other way around. Clear PC over HT. HT for the color, & clear PC 'cause it's more durable.

    I was able to use titegroup with Smoke's PC without leading today. If you want to stay with titegroup & COWW, I would give PC a try. I think it's more forgiving with alloy types & lower bhn.

    Which PC are you using? is the polyester one from Smoke4320? I loaded up a bunch of clear PC boolits with titegroup to test this weekend. I'm hoping it'll work 'cause I got 8lbs of it to burn through.
