    Look good to me too. Depends on how picky you want to be. This is not a slam. Some are pickier than others and as long as they shoot good, they are great. I'm not that picky. With more practice you will get even better but they do really look good, especially for someone starting out. Great job!

    They look right fine to me--I'd load them.

    They look champion, the holes on the target will tell you how good they are.

    Welcome Jasdebcr... They look like boolits to me...
    #1 If the boolit base is filled out and flat It will seriously hurt any can out there !
    #2 Be sure the boolit fills the cylinder throats. It needs to seal the gas behind the boolit.
    #3 It took me a year to figure out the picture thing WELL done !
