If I remember I was guessing in the 1350 fps range. I did quite a bit of reading on here and went with Larry Gibson and cast 16 to 1. I could almost fit my hand in the entry wound, you could tell the...

As a new caster I started with the devastator. I had a ton of question and problems that the great people here have helped me work through. A sub-forum would have put a lot of information in one...

That looks somewhat like what I have. Was I supposed to clean the new pot before I used it. My boolits look almost like grease is smeared in places. How do I clean the dust out? I was going to clean...

Forum: Cast Boolits
Thanks for the info. Those that hunt with SWC do you alloy it hard enough to shoot or harder so the bullet will not deform? I'm hunting deer in nc so they are less than 200 lbs. Looks like I need to...
