I have no doubt you are correct. Also, I am aware that others get good results from their NOE molds. However, I'm not doing this so that I can cast. I'm doing it so that I can shoot and I don't care to work at casting 25-30 good bullets when I can cast 100 perfect bullets with less effort. If you have read through all the posts in this thread, you know that I am not the only one with this experience.
