    You do not appear to have complete fill out of the bases of some of those boolits. Rounded edges on the bases means the gas check area is also not filled out. Hotter mold or a touch more tin in the mix or pressure pour.

    Update! After powdercoat the boolits and annealing the gas checks the issues went away
