    This is Smoke's red and blue. Sprayed with a Harbor Freight gun while setting on top of 45ACP cases. The mouth of the cases were reduced in size just enough to firmly hold the bullets. The cases were pop-riveted to a piece of aluminum and a 44mag. sizing die was used to reduce the case mouth. The bullets passed the smash test with flying colors. The mold is from Accurate. One cavity is 460/405v and the other is 460/405vg.

    First ones I've powder coated with my Harbor Freight system.
    I used to dry tumble & this is way better!

    Testing out more of Smoke's powders..... both sprayed really well, coverage is excellent, and they feel slick!!!
    SD Coppertop, freshly baked and outside in the sunlight:


    SD Coppertop, indoors:


    I don't have any j-words handy, but here's how it compares to real copper: Close!!!
    But note: This color will not tumble, it must be sprayed, and it costs a little more.

    Edit: I found some J-words in a box.... here they are for comparison:

    Alright, I am not at the level you guys are, but I finally have some pictures of my newbie attempts. This is Smoke's Flame Red (44Mag, Accurate 43-265F), with the shake & bake method with black BB's:

    I finally finished coating everything I've casted recently. My crappy analog bathroom scale suggests there are about 1500 boolits in the jar.

    Today I mixed some of Smoke's orange/brown with the SD copper. It makes a nice color!

    And, I tested some used (reclaimed) powder from a powdercoating shop. It makes a very nice color, but when it starts to flow, it flows just a little more than I like. I'll have to test it a little more. But.... it does have full coverage, feels super slippery and might shoot great.
