    I use HF Red and usually have to coat twice to get decent coverage. This was my biggest batch so far and seems to have worked better. Bigger is better? Maybe...(number 2 plastic, dry tumble)

    Tried mixin a couple colors... some worked well... I learned to steer clear of any Metallic...
    This is 50/50 white and "Slamin' Purple". (Very deep dark color)



    Was surprised to get GREY... So I doubled up on the purple...



    Got darker, SLIGHTLY darker grey.

    They look allot like the Powder I got from GRMPS so I like it!


    So then, I tried some RED, WHITE 50-50 and a 1/4 teaspoon of met Silver...



    I call them "ERASERS" NO, they aint just PINK...

    Then I did some of the 25/20 same color... But they don't look as good so probably no more small bullets that color.

    Flat Navy Blue, flat pink, and super durable wet black. These MiHec .45 Hammer bullets are made out of pure lead with a little tin per my buddie's request. I will be sending them to Southwest Virginia later this week for a little death and destruction come deer season.

    This one is that same grey I got form purple and white by adding another table spoon of people.



    This was an attempt to get "peach"... I was close but covered like crapola... so I had the idea to re coat with Metallic copper. Copper coats pretty well, but is very thin as its based on cl;ear... It worked out pretty well.



    Here is some of those 280G NOE boolits in my new purple.

    Here are some Accurate 40-200F boolits. The colors are Smoke's Signal Blue with a bit of HF Red sprinkled in. I'm trying to slowly use up the HF Red.

    Silver werewolf boolits! Nope, just smokes clear PC. You can see little dings and scratches from tumble coating but the clear PC filled them all in. They are as smooth as glass. Can't wait to slam a whitetail with them!

    I have to say that this thread is epic! Thank you to all who have posted such terrific pics!

    Here are some samples. Red is HF.
    Others are Smoke's



    My wife called the HG 50s "eggplant". Smokes Traffic Purple with a sprinkle of Jet Black. The 360432 are Signal Blue.
