83.1 to 82.6 gr out of a handful weighted.

Cast my first round ball today. I'm pleased with how they turned out. A random 20 measured .380-.382. That should make them tight in the Colt Navy.

I have been casting for a little while but only for one rifle. It's a .308 air rifle and I use the same formula of lead with 1-2% tin just to help it flow better. I have been dropping into a cake pan...
Forum: Cast Boolits
OK thanks. I was not sure I'm still green at casting. I'm thinking that the water dropping will help keep them round and reduce ding marks but was not sure if it would harden them.
Again Thanks.

I'm going to pick up a .380 round ball mold this weekend and cast some for my 1851 Colt Navy. Will water dropping them make them to hard? I will be using lead with 1 or 2% tin.

I would still add more screws to the valve just in case. That one round head screw is not enough for me to feel safe.

If you have a 80 cf ft tank @ 3000psi and a Discovery rifle this is what you will get. Starting fill pressure for gun of 2000 and refill at 1000 you can fill the gun 80 times.

Forum: AirGuns
PCP's like the Benjamin Discovery is only rated for 2000psi. So a 3000psi tank will work but the size of the tank will determine how many fills you will get.
