I cast my first batch of RCBS 148 grain full wadcutters about a month ago. Today I started playing around with them in my star sizer I aquired some time ago. Seems the wadcutters drop a bit too big from the mold (don't ask me the diameter, all this stuff is at my work and I forgot the measure before I left). There's not enough leverage with the sizer to push these through. They get jammed up. I took out the die with two stuck inside and tapped them through with a brass rod and hammer. They sized out perfectly at .358. Oh yeah, I pre-greased these before I started as I anticipated some resistance since there is no lube currently in the sizer. Alloy is one half wheel weights one half pure lead.
So what the heck? Is my mold to blame? Am I casting too cool?
