    I bought some MiHec moulds, but I haven't used them yet. I also have the Harbor Freight electrostatic powder coating gun, but I haven't even taken it out of the box yet, either.

    I cast mostly HP's..... not so I can do that, because I don't have many trays set up like that, but that is the way to go if you want to coat boolits and move them easily without any worries about knocking them over.
    I only have one little small dedicated nail tray, and I really only use it for tall HP rifle boolits.
    I can do HPs and solid boolits on my nut trays and only knock over about 1 or 2 in 500, so I haven't had a lot of incentive to build the nail trays.

    KE4GWE - - - - - - Colt 1860, it just feels right.

    Yup.

    Disclaimer: Reloading and casting I only look at cents/round and ignore any other costs
