bikerbeans, I am glad you had a good casting experience. Hexagonal boron nitride (bullet and bore conditioner) makes a very good mold conditioner --- it is sold in industry for that exact purpose.
Yes, I am very slack at going to the range in the winter time. I don't like the cold and huddling down behind a rife at the range is about the coldest cold I have had since riding a motorcycle in the wintertime, something that I also no longer do.
But, I can give you some cycling from the magazine --- both bullets work as good or better than the LEE molds mentioned upstream, but let's be real, until they are being gas cycled with normal loads that is only an approximation. Encouraging, but not final.
More later when it gets warmer.
