    I would try and make your alloy harder. Also you may want to take buckshot's advice and get a new barrel. You are going to have a hell of a time getting .361-362 projectiles to fit in a 9mm case...

    I haven't used solder so I can only be pretty sure, but I think the mix is tin and lead. Tin's hardening properties are minuscule. Also too much tin can have negative effects on the physical...

    You'd have to try and water quench after the PC process because baking at 400 will undo everything the quenching did after casting. 50/50 will only get you so far, you need some antimony. If you are...
