    The near-perfect nose condition is because they...

    In posts #7 & #8 I included a photo of an unfired, sized bullet, plus a smashed one. I see the unfired 95 grainer is obscured by the smashed one. But you can see the 125 grainer pretty good.

    Included in the first photos are one unfired bullet and one smash-tested bullet. Bullets from both molds passed the smash test. I put em in a toaster oven at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.

    Oh yeah. Measurements. The 95 grain RF was sized .357 before and after the widest parts of the bullet are ~0.3554"
    On the roundball which was unsized (.360) and the widest parts were around 0.3556"

    Ruger stripping PC off

    Now that the snow has melted I recovered a number of cast bullets I shot earlier. To my dismay they were all stripped to bare lead.

    I am wondering if this is a common problem with Ruger barrels? ...

    Catching bullets

    I find it useful to recover spent bullets and read the rifling marks and such, and digging them out of the snow works, but can be difficult to find them. Does anyone have any clever ways to catch...
