I have smelted over 100lbs of wheel weights that I get for free. At $1 per lb, I think the savings are significant and well worth my time. I just started casting this year. I think even if I had...

I will try again with 1 coat. They get pretty thick with 2!

I did 120 with this method tonight. Did have to cull a few for gas check area having too thick of PC buildup and or the mesh left exposed lead at the bands. That being said it did deliver a lot of...

I don't have any hardware cloth. What would the result be putting them on non stick?

Picked up some cloth. Good write up! I will try this tonight.

I'm going to coat some .223 75gr here shortly. Maybe I will give it a shot! I already have everything needed to dt with HF red.

Im not really sure but is good to see the test results from the Hi-tek. Most people use Hi-tek on pistol ammunition. Hi-tek is a commercial coating you apply to reduce smoke and leading mostly used...

Those bullets are Hi-tek coated and not powder coat. Not the same stuff.

I would like to cast with mine and measure before and after pc application before sending it in.

What would the downfall be if the nose measures out a couple thousandths small? I'll cast with mine in the next couple days when my mold handles and sizer die come in. I'll check the measurements,...

Just received this wonderful mold. I can't wait to cast with it! Thank you!

I use a Lyman bottom pour ladle. So far no issues with it. Have not decided I want to buy a bottom pour furnace yet or not. Seems the ladle is doing just fine!

I got my oven at Wally World for $15 on clearance! Works great. Get a tub of cool whip, and some non stick foil. Then stop over at harbor freight and pick up a lb of red powder! Everything you...

I think all the hostility came from the thread title. It's about like posting Ford sucks, or Obama sucks on Facebook. People get defensive. It does not bother me any. People can choose whatever...

Payment sent

You might try again with red if you want to dry tumble. I've done yellow also. Yellow works, no lead, just not as even as red. With that said if you buy the gun, it works fast and pretty with any...

Never mind it's in my pm. Sorry.

I have not received the call either. How much are the checks?

I also run mine at 20 psi with the smaller diffuser. About 3/4 inch of powder. But I am just beginning and only coated about 250. Many more to come!

We will see if the luck continues. I am going back to the range tonight. Hopefully the Hi-Point likes the 452-200-swc I made up for it. It was a real hard time getting them to the right COAL to...

I was surprised it didn't jam. I pulled it out a few weeks ago to show a friend. We shot 4 magazines of commercial through it and it jammed 3 times. I took it apart and cleaned it, and plunk...

You got that right Shiloh! I was hooked before I went to the range. Now it's bordering on obsession!

I'm pretty sure my micrometer is only accurate to .001. I made a guesstimate on the .3565 due to it being almost exactly half way between the 6 and the 7 on the dial. That being said, the boolits...

I got a .357 sizer. The bore slugs to .3565 on the canik. I may need to lap the sizer, but for right now I will try again another day. I was shooting at Thunder Alley indoor range in Lincoln.

I like the canik, I think it has great potential. I've never had a DA/SA gun before. I am used to single action triggers so the extra take up in the trigger on this gun throws me off. I have read...

Thank you for all your help and wealth of information on this website. In the last month I have smelted my first wheel weights. Cast my first bullets and powder coated them. Tonight I got to go to...
