I just saw a post on the Cast Boolits forum on Facebook where they are using silicone micro ice cube trays to stand up boolits up to bake after powder coating!
They are available from Amazon!

I have been using them for a year , they work great
I'm using the plastic trays from ammo boxes. They're free from garbage can at range. Put them on a piece of plywood, fill up with coated nose down boolets. When full cover with your oven tray, turn over. Remove plywood and plastic bullet trays , your boolets are ready for the oven.

That's what I've been doing for pistol boolits, but, the long skinny rifle boolits have been begging for a better solution. Also, on my oven, I can only fit 3 ammo sleeves, so 150 rounds, the silicone ice cube trays give me an extra 10 rounds. Not much, but, every little bit helps!

Mine just came in the mail. I'm going to do a 30 cal batch soon. I've got a top secret method I'm going to try.
Does one put the powder coated boolits, mold and all in the oven? Or flip the boolits onto a tray then put tray with boolits in the oven?
Wondering if one way works better than the other.
I put the tray and all in. I am sold on them!
They work great for 9mm bullets. I haven't tried any 30 caliber yet, but, I'm betting they work well for them too

I'm using the Lee 120 TC mold. I got these trays from ebay

Perfect glade to know that 9mm works.
Does anyone know if 40 cal will fit in the micro trays as well?
40 cal definitely would not fit in the ones I have
