Hello all - I have a couple of questions perhaps ya'll can help me with. I'd like to make a smooth bullet for PP'ing in smokeless powder, perhaps 43 Spanish and 45-70 rifles.
With a smooth sided cavity mold, will a bullet drop out of a solid mold ok without it being in two pieces? OR - does a mold require two pieces to open to allow bullet to drop out? I'm talking low production here, just a few bullets cast at a time - like 30 or 40 or so bullets?
Also, would a brass solid mold drop the bullets any better than an aluminum mold? I can do either one, got brass or aluminum round stock large enough to make mold with.
Thank ya'll for any comments or suggestions.
