    G'Day Joe, Trevor
    I hear you have a dark green Hi-Tek and possibly many other colors for sale in OZ that aren't currently here in the USA. Would it be possible to upload pictures of all the colors available? I'm sure others would be interested also.

    Not trying to butt into the conversation but Donnie at High Performance Bullet Coatings, here in the US, I think has some of the latest dark green for sale. He also has a yellow which turns beige when cooked and an orange that turns burnt orange when cooked. You can see the colors in post 8644 on page 433.
    While I work at it, it is by God's grace that it happens. So it is best I ask him what, how and when before I start..

    Yep. Donnie has far more colours than there are available here in OZ.
    Home coating isn't very popular here. only a handful of people do it.
    Hooroo.

    I'm trying a test to see if what works for me on another web site works here, and I'll edit my post if it doesn't, but one thing that I've found definitely helps is using an app for iOS called 'Image Size', and for example I reduced this photo taken with my iPhone to 750x750 pixel and am able to upload even with a lousy rural internet condition.

    Possibly there is a way to accomplish the same with a PC, but since I am 100% Apple & have been for years I'm not up on what's available for Windows.

    Someone following this thread should know how to do something similar on the Windows platform.

    Hope this helps!

    IrfanView is a great program for the PC.

    Image viewer that also allows one to resize and crop. It's free also.

    Currently casting for .223, .308, .30-06, .30-40 Krag, 9mm, .38/.357, 10mm, 44 Mag and 45 ACP.

    I like strange looking boolits!

    I didn't see dark green or any new colors @ Hi-Performance Bullet Coatings. Donnie, did you discontinue Kryptonite?

    I only a small sample size of the dark green on hand not enough to list for sale. If you guys are interested in some I have an order pending with Joe and I can see about adding a carton or two to the existing order.
    I have K. Green on hand it was deleted inadvertently from the website, I will get with the gent that handles my site and get it relisted asap.

    I think you just did many folk an unintended favor there with that pic. If bullets laying in YOUR hand without the lube groove completely covered don't put that question to rest, nothing will.

    Redwoode,
    The Dark Green in photos has no metallics, but Zombie and Kryptonite Green does.
    There is a version of Dark Green with metallics, but it has not been tested or advertised.
    May be, I can send some away to have tested and photographed.
    Who knows, it might end up being a great product....

    Thanks’ for posting the colors, Joe.
    I also think a dark metallic green would be interesting.
